Official Images // Nike Air Max SNDR "Obsidian"

The Air Max SNDR’s cult appeal has remained intact since its 1999 debut, but in 2025, Nike is giving it a major spotlight. Following the reveal of several inline and collaborative editions, the next colorway to appear is the “Obsidian” edition—scheduled to release this Fall.

This rendition sticks to the model’s original blueprint, with the sleek zip-up shroud and foam-backed upper construction still intact. A layered mix of dark navy tones engulfs the silhouette, with Obsidian hues taking center stage across the upper, complemented by black rubber outsoles and orange pops beneath. Miniature orange Swooshes break through the lateral panels, while reflective detailing along the midfoot overlay provides enhanced visibility in low light. Inside, vibrant orange lining elevates the palette, injecting the sneaker with a technical yet energetic twist.

The retro-futurist silhouette remains mostly unchanged from its turn-of-the-century roots, combining design-forward concepts with practical detailing, including the full-length zip entry and visible Air sole units underfoot.

Expect the Air Max SNDR “Obsidian” to arrive on Nike.com and select retailers this Fall 2025.
