Nike Gets Skeletal on the Air Max 95 “Anatomy of Air”

Drawing inspiration from the anatomy of the human being, Sergio Lozano’s Air Max 95’s layered approach is a result of both natural erosion, and how the human body clings to its surrounding tissue. The final shoe had an upper with layered panels that resembled muscle fibers and flesh, Nylon eyelets that were fashioned after ribs, and a midsole that took after the spine. Given the nature of the inspiration, Nike rarely takes a literal approach to the design — which is what makes this new Nike Air Max 95 “Anatomy of Air” collection so very special.

With two colorways on the way — one skeletal, the other flesh — we take a look at the literal backbone of the body, with a fitting scheme of white and light bone centers around a skeleton-graphic sole plate, and bone marrow midsoles. There are milky accents along the outsole, heel, and tongue, too, all of which are laid atop a white mesh upper and cascading suede overlays that work from white to grey. Tongues and eyestays are finished off with ribcage-like ridges, with inner tounges embroidered with “Anatomy of Air” completing the design.
