Nike's Most Artful Air Max Looks Just as Suave as a Hoop Shoe
As if the ballers didn’t already have a wealth of options to pick from, they’re now coming for icons like the Nike Air Max 95, too.
Nothing lies beyond Ronnie Fieg’s cultural reach. From BMW to Disney, Kith has collaborated with just about every company you can think of and that goes way beyond just clothing brands. Now, linking up with Nike and KD, Kith brings us a new era of the Nike Air Max 95.
Fieg has been very open about his love of the iconic Nike silhouette designed by Sergio Lozano back in 1995, particularly, the OG ‘Neon’ colorway, calling it “the single greatest shoe of all time”.
Here, that sense of reverence is on full display. In collaboration with Nike, Fieg retools the KD 18 with a new layered upper delivered in the time-tested Neon colorway.
There’s no mistaking the design despite some subtle differences like the checkerboard texture to the suede upper which features Kith branding embossed throughout.
It’s a detail that we’ve seen before, namely in the Kith x Nike Air Max 95 ‘Knicks’ capsule that dropped at the end of 2025.
Unfortunately, the Kith x Nike KD 18 “Air Max 95” has been previewed only as a Friends & Family release, so the chances of it hitting shelves are minute, but we can hope that this signals a new era of sneaker crossovers through Ronnie Fieg’s Kith imprint.
