London-based skate brand Palace is stepping into new territory with its first-ever Nike collaboration. After successful projects with Adidas, New Balance, and Reebok, Palace is teaming up with the Swoosh to reimagine the Air Max DN8. According to Brendan Dunne of Complex, this exciting release is slated to drop as part of Nike’s Holiday 2025 lineup.

The Air Max DN8 builds on the foundation laid by its predecessor, the Air Max Dn, which debuted in 2024. Featuring Nike’s cutting-edge “Dynamic Air” cushioning system, the DN8 incorporates tubular Air bags that span the full length of the sole. This innovative design aims to deliver comfort and style, positioning the DN8 as a lifestyle sneaker that appeals to both skaters and casual wear enthusiasts.

While details about the Palace x Nike collaboration remain scarce, it’s a significant move for the skate brand. Palace’s transition to Nike signals an evolution in its partnerships, following a recent announcement of its broader deal with the sportswear giant. As of now, no official images of the collaborative Air Max DN8 have surfaced, keeping fans eager to see how Palace’s bold aesthetic will translate onto the silhouette.

The Palace x Nike Air Max DN8 is expected to release during the holiday season of 2025. It will be available through Palace stores, select Nike retailers, and Nike.com. Stay tuned for updates on pricing and official imagery as the launch date approaches.

This collaboration promises to be a milestone for Palace, blending skate culture with Nike’s iconic design innovation. Will it live up to the hype? Time will tell, but it’s certainly one to watch.
