If we’ve said it once, we’ve said it a million times: 2025 is the year of the Air Max 95. The 30th anniversary celebration for the Sergio Lazano-designed silhouette has brought out OG retros, hype new collabs, and perfectly detailed inline releases. The AM 95 focus has also brought rumors about future pairs, and it looks like we might have some new confirmation on a potential atmos collab pair.
In May, we heard rumors about a pack of two atmos x Nike Air Max 95 colorways coming in Spring 2026, and this week, atmos creative director Hirofumi Kojima hinted at a new Tokyo-themed 95, suggesting the rumors might be true. The secretive photo posted to Instagram by Kojima shows an internal sockliner of an Air Max 95 with the letters “HRJK” embroidered below a neon Swoosh, all in front of a silver embroidered background. A second photo from the post shows the entrance sign to Tokyo’s famed fashion-forward Harajuku neighborhood (shoutout Gwen Stefani for the knowledge).
Later, Kojima posted a photo of the sneaker in full, revealing a primarily black colorway accented by neon green. Most of the upper is coated in black leather panels, while neon hits are located on the nylon lace loop and Air unit.
With an atmos preview and a hyper-local Tokyo theme, we’re guessing these are a Japan-exclusive pair, but like we mentioned, there isn’t any finite information just yet.
