Nike SB x Air Max 95 'Cactus Flower' Release Date

The Nike SB team is bringing a skate-ready twist to a ‘90s icon with the debut of the Nike SB x Air Max 95 'Cactus Flower.' Known for its anatomical design lines and bold neon accents, the original Air Max 95 stood out as a technical running shoe that became a cultural staple—but was never meant for the board. Now, decades later, Nike SB bridges that gap, preserving the silhouette’s layered aesthetic while redesigning it for modern skate performance.

Swapping out the original’s mesh and synthetic build for skate-preferred suede and leather, this updated version refines the 95’s structure with flexibility and grip in mind. The higher-cut profile has been retooled with a thinner insole for improved boardfeel, while the outsole gains herringbone traction for added control. Dressed in a clean Summit White and Cactus Flower colorway, with gum rubber finishes and SB branding throughout, this long-awaited crossover finally gives skaters a chance to shred in a classic.

Mark your calendars as the Nike SB x Air Max 95 'Cactus Flower' will be released on August 22, 2025.
