UPDATE 3/11/26: Official images of the Nike Air Max 95 “Apple Green” have now surfaced, giving a clearer look at the returning Air Max 95 retro ahead of its expected Spring 2026 release. The new photos highlight the signature grey gradient upper paired with Green Apple and Photo Blue accents throughout the design. Adult and GS sizes are expected to arrive on Nike.com soon.
Original Story 3/8/26:
The Nike Air Max 95 “Apple Green” is officially returning in 2026. First released as a JD Sports exclusive in 2010, the colorway quickly became a cult favorite among Air Max collectors thanks to its vibrant accents and limited availability.
New detailed images have now surfaced, offering a closer look at the upcoming retro. Early retail information also suggests the release will once again arrive as a JD Sports exclusive, continuing the distribution strategy used for the original 2010 drop.
The 2026 release closely recreates the original design with grey leather side panels layered in the signature Anthracite, White, and Iron Grey gradient that defines the Air Max 95. Photo Blue and Green Apple accents appear on the Swoosh, tongue branding, lace loops, and laces, while the heel Air unit features a gradient blend of the two colors inside the enlarged “big bubble” cushioning.
One of the most noticeable adjustments arrives underfoot. Nike updates the sneaker with the larger “big bubble” Air Max heel unit, a detail returning on several recent Air Max 95 retros. The change modernizes the cushioning while staying close to the silhouette’s original design.
When the sneaker launched in 2010, its limited distribution made the “Green Apple” one of the harder Air Max 95 pairs to secure. The scarcity helped the colorway build a loyal following among longtime Air Max fans and collectors.
Nike Air Max 95 “Apple Green” JD Sports Release Date
The Nike Air Max 95 “Green Apple” will release first through JD Sports, before becoming widely available, available in both men’s and grade school sizing.
Early shipments of the grade school pairs have already started arriving at select JD Sports locations, signaling that a wider retail launch could be approaching soon. The sneaker is currently expected to release in Spring 2026 with a retail price of $190 USD.
