Nike x Corteiz Air Max 95 2026: What's Confirmed and What's Just a Rumour

Every few months the same story resurfaces: Corteiz and Nike are working on another Air Max 95. It's a rumour with a solid foundation — but foundation isn't confirmation, and that distinction matters.

What's confirmed

The Corteiz x Nike relationship is real and ongoing. Three Air Max 95 colourways landed in 2023, each through a different guerrilla drop: one in London, one via coordinates posted to a New York bodega, one in Paris. Three Air Trainer Huarache colourways followed in late 2024, closing the year with an ARG drop in NYC.

That run remains the most globally significant chapter in CRTZ history. It's why every new whisper gets attention.

What's rumoured

A new Air Max 95 in 2026, with several colourway names circulating across streetwear communities and resale forums.

What's actually been announced

Nothing. No statement from Corteiz. No statement from Nike. No listing on any official channel.

Why we're not treating this as news

Corteiz doesn't leak. The entire release model is built on surprise — password-gated sites, drops announced hours in advance, locations revealed through coordinates. If an AM95 is coming, the first reliable word will come from the brand itself, not from a forum thread.

Two things worth keeping in mind:

• Colourway lists circulating without a source are exactly that — unsourced.
• Be wary of any site taking pre-orders for a shoe that doesn't officially exist. If they're selling something Nike hasn't announced, ask yourself what you'd actually receive.

What we'll do

We track every CRTZ release as it happens — prices, sizes, sellout times, restocks. The moment an Air Max 95 is officially announced, it will appear in our droplists with real data, not estimates.

Until then, this stays filed under rumour.
