Introduced as part of CDG’s impressive Spring/Summer 2025 collection, the model appeared in a trio of colorways, including an eye-catching pink and white makeup alongside CDG’s signature monochrome black and white editions. CDG are, of course, no strangers to reviving some of the more underrated sneakers from the Nike vault, and have combined the uppers of the Nike with the souped-up tech of the Sense for this project.

Traditionally featuring Air sole units in the forefoot and heel, the new ISPA (Improvise, Scavenge, Protect, Adapt) Sense engineering ensures a versatile ride built for traction and durability on any surface.
CDG aren’t the only ones to take the Air Max 96 for a spin in recent years. In 2021, skate behemoth also retooled the silhouette, launching a trio of colorways with translucent panels added around the upper.
