The Nike Air Max 95 OG “Big Bubble Reverse Solar Red” (IV6425-060) brings back the large, visible Air unit while flipping the classic color gradient. Instead of fading from dark to light from the bottom up, this version reverses the gradient, finished with a bold solar red accent. For Air Max fans, it’s pure nostalgia with a twist.

Why the 95 is a design classic
Sergio Lozano’s Air Max 95 was inspired by the human body: the layers represent muscles, the mesh acts as skin, and the sole forms the backbone. That layered design was groundbreaking in 1995 and still looks modern today. The return of the “Big Bubble”—the larger, fuller-looking Air unit—restores the original proportions fans had been missing for years. This is the 95 as it was meant to be.
The story behind the colorway
“Reverse” refers to the reversed gradient: while the original “Neon” faded from dark at the bottom to light at the top, this version flips the order. The solar red accent replaces the familiar neon yellow, giving the whole shoe a warmer, more aggressive feel. Gray tones as the foundation, red as the signal—that’s still a winning combination.
What to wear with it
The 95 is a pants-first sneaker: because of its volume underfoot, it looks best with something straight-leg or slightly baggy. Try gray or black cargo pants with a washed hoodie, and let the red be the only bright point in your outfit. A tech jacket or vest completes the sporty look. I’d keep the rest of the outfit tonal gray so the reverse gradient can really stand out.
How much does it cost in the Netherlands?
OG releases with the Big Bubble are highly sought after, so the price is a little higher than that of a regular 95. There can still be significant differences between retailers, so it pays to compare.

My advice
If you’re a 95 fan and already own the original “Neon”, this reverse version is a logical, fresh addition: the same iconic silhouette with a different energy. The Big Bubble also makes it more accurate than many later reissues. Air Max 95s can run a little narrow for some people, so try them on first. Then take your time comparing the retailers on the right.
