Looking to bring a fresh aesthetic to a model that's been well-loved for years, American athletic giant Nike released a new black Nike Air Max 95.
Staying true to most of the model's original silhouette, the company has a decoratively stitched upper sit atop a well-gripped sole -- which comes with bubble-like synthetic accents on its sides. The Swoosh logo appears minimally on the new black Nike's, as it's shown in the same deep charcoal that the rest of the sneakers are colored.
What's most unique about the updated retro model however is its inclusion of thin black strings all along its sides. With this, the new black Nike Air Max 95s are a great product for those looking for a sleek pair of sneakers that have a modern look.
