If there’s one way to get Americans to pay attention to soccer, it’s with limited-edition gear. From retro kits to cross-branded cleats and country-specific colorways of classic lifestyle shoes, World Cup anticipation is driving some of the best drops of the early year. Nike is taking free kicks with its latest fan service collab, adding flames and colors of the flag to a fire pair of Air Max 95s for Mexico.

The Nike Air Max 95 Mexico first popped up in leaked previews late last month, but as we get closer to the World Cup, official images have arrived, showing the colorway’s high heat details. Starting with green leather on the T-toe, the white leather side panels add a green-to-red gradient flame print made of dot art flowing towards the heel, with more green on the sockliner and red accents on the lace loops and tongue to complete the Mexican flag trifecta. Finishing the design is the El Tiempo F.C. branding debossed on the heel.

In addition to the Air Max 95, Nike is adding a Mexico Air Force 1 with similar flame details to the mix, along with a Team USA Air Force 1, a Team England Air Max 95, and a Team Brazil Shox R4. No matter what happens on the field, the Mexico pairs are the clear winners from Nike’s collection.

The Nike Air Max 95 Big Bubble Mexico will be released Summer 2026 through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $200.
