The Nike Air Max 95 draws inspiration from human anatomy, resulting in its distinctive, wave-like design. The combination of different materials and the visible Max Air cushioning create a layered look with exceptional comfort.

- The upper is inspired by the human body—the midsole represents the spine, the layered panels represent the muscles, and the laces represent the ribs of the shoe
- Textile and synthetic leather create a multi-layered look designed for durability
- The visible Max Air cushioning provides lightweight cushioning
- Flex grooves in the midsole and outsole allow for free movement
