Nike Air Max 95 (Independence Day)

UPDATE: Wish ATL also got stocks when these bad-boys start to hit shelves in the coming days – make sure you add them to your hit list so you don't miss out.

In under two weeks time, Americans are set to celebrate the 239th anniversary of cutting off the motherland. They'll do so by eating a lot of meat, shooting pyrotechnics into the night sky and just generally chilling with friends and fam. There will be a lot of sightings of Old Glory too, and some particularly zealous 'Muricans will douse themselves in red, white and blue apparel. Sneaker brands come through every year with some 'Murican pride fresh footwear options and Nike have prepped these bright bangers for the Air Max clique. Red leather and mesh uppers with navy linings, white midsoles with gum treads – these bring a patriotic tear to our eye, and we ain't even Yankees. Select Nike retailers have 'em now, including Rock City.
