Eric Koston continues to fuse skateboarding culture with Nike heritage in the latest collaboration: the Eric Koston x Nike SB Air Max 95, expected to release in November 2025. This edition blends classic design cues with modern skate-ready functionality, creating a silhouette that honors both the Air Max lineage and Koston’s influence on skateboarding.

The shoe features a striking Obsidian upper crafted from durable suede and breathable mesh, accented by Speed Yellow on the Swooshes, eyelets, and custom tongue tags reading “Koston” and “Air Max.” Navy and yellow tones similar to Michigan colors, while Thai script embroidery on the toe adds a unique cultural touch, reflecting Koston’s birthplace. Retro neon Air Max insoles round out the design, pairing nostalgia with playful detail. Co-branded Nike SB Air logos on the heel deliver a signature finishing touch.

Built with performance in mind, the SB version of the Air Max 95 includes reinforced padding and updated insoles tailored for skateboarding. The result is a shoe that balances everyday wearability with technical support for skating, making it versatile both on and off the board. With a combination of heritage design, cultural storytelling, and modern function, the Eric Koston x Nike SB Air Max 95 stands out as one of Nike SB’s most anticipated releases this fall.
