The Nike Air Max 95 Essential Black is a versatile version of one of the most recognizable silhouettes from the '90s, regularly returning to Nike collections as a springboard for color and material experiments. The Triple Black version is part of the cyclical "murdered-out" rotation—monochromatic releases that attract both retro-running sneaker collectors and urbanists looking for a neutral, easily blended foundation for their wardrobe. The AT9865-001 model is a primarily linear release, without limited packaging or special collaborations—a practical footwear option for those who value Air Max heritage and want something reliable. At Aplug, you'll find authentic pairs with full authenticity verification, ready to wear immediately.

The upper is constructed from overlapping, wavy panels in smooth leather, suede, and mesh—a mix of textures that, despite the all-black palette, creates distinct layering and depth. The only bright accent is the white "Air Max" lettering on the tongue , which organically breaks up the all-black look. The construction features visible Nike Air units in the heel and midfoot , also in a dark tone, paired with black midsole foam and a matte rubber finish. The overall effect is a raw, urban aesthetic without unnecessary detail—a "murdered-out" characteristic with a distinct layered construction typical of the Air Max 95.

The Air Max 95 Essential in Triple Black is perfect for styles focused on a minimalist, raw aesthetic . The shoes pair best with heavy denim (raw denim, oversized trousers), cargo pants, nylon jackets, or fleece jackets—textures that enhance the industrial vibe. The suede panels require waterproofing, but the all-black colorway neatly conceals dirt in everyday wear. For maximum impact, go for an all-black look or pair it with layered, raw materials; the sneakers also work well as an anchor in techwear outfits or minimalist streetwear ensembles.

What makes the Nike Air Max 95 Essential Black special?

• Visible Nike Air units in the heel and midfoot – springy air chambers that absorb shocks when walking and add real comfort for everyday use, without the need for running training.
• A mix of materials on the upper – smooth leather, suede and mesh – creates layered texture and functional breathability while protecting the foot from abrasion in urban traffic.
• The midsole foam (EVA/Phylon) provides light energy return and base cushioning, making the shoes comfortable for everyday walking without excess cushioning.
• The black, matte rubber sole guarantees traction in urban conditions and practicality in cleaning - it does not show every micro-slip.
• The white accent on the tongue of the shoe (the "Air Max" inscription) elegantly breaks the total black aesthetic, adding a subtle contrast without disturbing the raw character.
• The Air Max 95's layered upper construction —the distinctive wave-like panels not only visually but also functionally support and provide structure to the foot.

How to choose the size of Nike Air Max 95 Essential Black?

The Nike Air Max 95 Essential Black fits true to size (TTS) —for those with a standard width, the size should be exactly what you normally wear. The suede and leather uppers have limited elasticity, so if you have wider feet or plan to wear thicker winter socks, consider ordering a half-size larger (+0.5). With thin socks and a standard fit, the foot should settle without any need for further adjustments—lacing allows for precise adjustments to suit your individual profile.
