Nike's Chocolate-Coated Air Max Is Seriously Sweet
Chocolate belongs in a lot of places. On top of ice cream sundays? Sure. Underneath marshmallows and on top of graham crackers for s'mores? Absolutely. But mixed into a classic Nike sneaker? Well, as the Swoosh would have it, yes.
Following a year of stunning anniversary releases, the Air Max 95 has been keeping something of a low profile. But now the Swoosh is waking it up with a new chocolatey rendition.
This cacao-coated Air Max 95, available on the Nike website for $185, is a sweeter take on what is otherwise a pretty standard sneaker.
While the Air Max 95 maintains its staple gray mesh paneling throughout the upper, chocolate accents sweeten things up at the eyelet, the Swoosh, and the outsole.
There's also a sprinkle of chocolatey goodness at the back half of the Air Max 95's tongue branding.
Elsewhere, this Air Max 95 is clocking in for business as usual with its visible Max Air cushioning, muscle-esque paneling, and layered suede textiles. It's sweet yet simple enough to blend in well with Nike's ever-expanding lineage of Air Max 95s.
Adored by everyone from Posh Spice to Jay-Z, the Air Max historically hasn't had to do much to maintain its status as one of the best Nike releases, like, ever.
