Product description
The Eric Koston x Nike Air Max 95 SB Obsidian Speed Yellow is Nike SB's official collaboration with the skateboarding legend, celebrating the 30th anniversary of the Air Max 95. The design combines the heritage of the classic 95 with skate-specific modifications, enhanced with personal nods to Koston's heritage—an embroidered Thai inscription and a color scheme inspired by the University of Michigan. The sneaker debuted on November 7, 2025 , as a hybrid designed for both skateboarding and streetwear. Aplug offers tried-and-true, limited-edition pairs from authorized retailers.
The silhouette is dominated by the layered construction characteristic of the Air Max 95—the lower sections of the upper are constructed from a matte suede in Obsidian (dark blue), which has a distinct, slightly raw texture. Above, a light mesh (Summit White) is used for breathability and contrast. Speed Yellow accents appear on the yellow eyestays and underneath, as well as on the mini Swoosh embroidered on the heel. Customized oval tongue patches and Thai-style embroidery on the forefoot create a narrative element of the collaboration. The muted black midsole is accented by visible amber Air Max units on the forefoot and heel—a stark contrast to the light panels of the upper. The overall design has a raw, skate-ready feel—a blend of durable materials and breathability with intentional, contrasting flashes of Speed Yellow.
This pair works well with both strictly skater outfits and everyday streetwear. The former pairs perfectly with items like wide-leg cargo pants, gray or black hoodies with logos, and classic T-shirts with embroidered backs. The latter pairs well with classic, dusty jeans, oversized flannels (Aplug has a flannel from the official Koston x Nike line in Midnight Navy), minimalist blouses, and lunchboxes. The shoe's yellow accents naturally complement the more neutral tones of the outfit and effectively brighten up heavier, fall/winter outfits—especially when paired with a navy blue or bomber jacket.
What are the features of the Eric Koston x Nike Air Max 95 SB Obsidian Speed Yellow?
- Obsidian Matte Suede – Thick, durable and more resistant to abrasion than thinner fabrics, it requires minimal care but provides a premium look and natural protection from moisture and light wear.
- Light mesh (Summit White) in the upper improves ventilation and reduces the overall weight of the shoe without sacrificing the stiffness needed for skating.
- Visible Air Max in the front and rear of the sole – pressurized air cushions absorb impact energy on landings and increase comfort for everyday wear; it is also an iconographic element of the model.
- Reinforced midsole foam and a thicker rubber tread improve board grip and extend the life of the shoe in intense riding conditions; the hardness of the sole prevents premature deformation.
- Increased ankle padding and redesigned sockliners (with graphics stylized after Air Max tooling) provide protection from skating-related impacts and extra cushioning with every step.
- Thai alphabet embroidery on the forefoot – a narrative and personalization element that connects the skat aesthetic with Koston’s Asian roots; details like this are rare in mainstream SB.
- A Speed Yellow Mini Swoosh on the heel and personalized tongue patches enhance the collectible feel and are instantly recognizable to Nike SB fans familiar with the collaboration.
- A black sole reduces the visibility of dirt and is easy to clean; amber Air units contrast colorfully with the light panels of the upper, giving the model a recognizable, memorable look.
How to choose the size of Eric Koston x Nike Air Max 95 SB Obsidian Speed Yellow?
The Eric Koston x Nike Air Max 95 SB is a true-to-size (TTS) fit for those with a standard width foot. Redesigned for skating, the shoe features a slightly wider last than the classic Air Max 95, making it more comfortable for wider feet. If you have a wide forefoot or plan to wear thicker skating or winter socks, consider ordering half a size up (+0.5). Suede and mesh have minimal stretch, so a tight fit can quickly show—when in doubt, size up.
