The Nike Air Max 95 "Houseflies" transforms Halloween horror into wearable art with 3M reflective fly graphics swarming across a jet-black leather upper, proving Nike's spooky season creativity knows no bounds.

Design & Inspiration

Nike's annual Halloween Pack takes a borderline grotesque approach for 2025, covering the iconic Air Max 95 "Big Bubble" silhouette in houseflies for a morbid yet playful aesthetic. This release follows the Air Force 1 "Houseflies" with a darker, more sinister execution. The sneaker features a sleek black leather upper constructed from premium materials that surpass typical Air Max 95 builds, stacked with the model's signature rippling layers that gradually darken from upper to midsole. White 3M reflective housefly graphics swarm across the layered panels in Metallic Dark Grey, reminiscent of flies surrounding a decaying corpse—the 3M material allows these flies to glow eerily in the dark. The horror extends beyond surface level: an embroidered spider lurks inside the tongue, cobweb designs cover the Air Max logo on the tongue badge, and the translucent outsole spine trades traditional PSI numbers for an infestation of flies. A small jewel Swoosh glints on the heel as the only trace of gloss in this shadow-heavy build. It's subtle horror stitched into heritage design.

Comfort & Performance

To celebrate 30 years of the iconic Air Max 95 silhouette, Nike brings back the "Big Bubble" edition with design elements true to the 1995 original. The visible Air units in striking Neon Yellow provide responsive cushioning and excellent support, maintaining the revolutionary visible Air technology that launched the Air Max lineage in 1987. The combination of synthetic leather overlays and airy mesh ensures breathability while the premium leather construction offers enhanced durability. The signature rippling layers aren't just aesthetic—they provide structural support and flexibility. The full-length Air cushioning system delivers bounce and comfort whether you're hitting the streets or adding this to your collection. This iteration successfully bridges the gap between the Air Max 95's performance running heritage and modern lifestyle appeal.
