Nike Sportswear is reviving one of its most popular classics under the Big Bubble name, releasing the Nike Air Max 95 OG “Granite” for Spring 2026. The “Granite” colorway is an OG palette that was originally dropped in the mid-’90s, and remains one of the most iconic colorways from Sergio Lozano’s award-winning silhouette.

The gradient fade uppers of black on the bottom to a soft grey on top — which were meant to mimic contracting muscle fibers — are retained on the new drop, as well as the breathable mesh upper and stacked suede overlays that were part of the original construction. Lozano’s OG silhouette also receives updated Big Bubble Air units in place of the original Max Air for a fresh dose of comfort and aesthetic playfulness. Black Swooshes are rendered on the heel to contrast the white midsole unit, and tie all of the design elements together with that classic AM95 vibe.

This is another subtle and refreshing take on a Nike classic that’s sure to remind sneakerheads of why the Air Max 95 remains one of the brand’s most recognizable performance-lifestyle sneakers.

The Nike Air Max 95 OG Big Bubble “Granite” releases Spring 2026 at select Nike Sportswear retailers and Nike.com.
