The Air Max 95 sits on top of a blacked-out midsole. This has been infused with Nike’s Air tech for an extra bit of oomph. The sneaker is finished off with Corteiz logos across the front and back in yellow, as well as its signature Alcatraz motif.
Corteiz is on the fast lane to becoming one of the most hyped brands in the business. Founded by British-Nigerian entrepreneur Clint (who’s better known by Clint419), he started off screen-printing sweatshirts and tees from his bedroom. Now, just seven years later, he’s rubbing shoulders with some of the industry’s biggest names. Last December, for example, the brand teamed up with streetwear royalty Supreme for a full clothing collection that sold out in seconds.
No official release date has been set for the Corteiz x Nike Air Max 95 ‘Tour Yellow,’ but it’s expected to drop in early December. It’ll be available via Corteiz, Nike, the SNKRS app, and select stockists globally for $190. If the previous three colorways have taught us anything, expect resale to be double (or even triple) this.
