Two fashion icons, Levi’s® and Nike, join forces with the latest Sportswear collaboration.
Levi’s® and Nike, two titans of fashion and culture, have joined forces once again for their most anticipated collaboration.
This time, they’ve merged Levi’s® rich denim heritage with Nike’s legendary Air Max 95 silhouette. Bringing together two brands that have been trendsetters in global sports and lifestyle fashion for generations, this latest Levi’s® x Nike collaboration represents the perfect combination of denim and sneaker history.
The collection centers around three versions of the legendary Nike Air Max 95, each crafted with premium Levi’s® denim materials and unique design elements that honor the DNA of both brands. The Levi’s® x Nike Air Max 95 White/Ecru combines understated shades of raw denim and matte white with a rubber sole, providing a neutral look that pairs perfectly with your favorite worn-in Levi’s® jeans. The understated and soft Levi’s® x Nike Air Max 95 Black features a denim construction in monochromatic tones. While the Levi’s® x Nike Air Max 95 Denim represent an indigo denim construction with a medium to light wash pattern. A matte navy blue sole and midsole replace the typical semi-gloss finish, while the upper incorporates fabric variations unique to this collaboration.
The OG “Big Bubble” Air Max pays homage to the original Nike Air Max 95, and features exceptional cushioning. With a slightly slimmer silhouette, each sneaker features unique details that pay homage to both brands: the iconic red Levi’s® label appears under the Nike logo on the right side only, while the outsole features red Levi’s® branding. All three colorways come in custom packaging: classic Nike Air Max 95 boxes redesigned in Levi’s® red with logo detailing.
The Levi’s® x Nike Trucker Jacket and Levi’s® x Nike Baggy Jean in the collection reinvent classic denim silhouettes with contemporary cuts, featuring authentic selvedge denim and matching medium to light-wear patterns, enhanced by the brand’s signature off-white chain stitch detailing and brown leather patches, shared with the Nike logo replacing traditional Levi’s® elements. The Trucker jacket retains the iconic Type II construction with selvage running along the inner placket and a prominent chain-stitch Nike logo on the back, while the baggy jeans offer a wide, oversized cut designed specifically to complement the footwear in the collection, with a perfect leg opening and cutout design that enhances the profile of the sneaker.
“In collaboration with Nike, we set out to create an immersive experience that celebrated the shared heritage and forward-thinking spirit of both brands. The opportunity to reinvent the iconic Nike Air Max 95 in honor of its 30th anniversary was a true milestone,” said Leo Gamboa, Vice President of Collaborations at Levi’s. “By integrating our signature denim into one of Nike’s most iconic silhouettes, we created a seamless fusion of sport and lifestyle, honoring the past and challenging the boundaries of design.”
The new Levi’s® x Nike collection celebrates the authentic craftsmanship and innovative spirit that both brands represent, offering athletic-inspired style through meticulously designed pieces that honor each brand’s heritage and challenge creative boundaries. Fusing Levi’s® authentic denim heritage with Nike’s revolutionary Air Max design, the collection is proud to represent the marriage of sportswear and style as only Levi’s and Nike can.
The campaign features hip hop artist Larry June, WNBA player Paige Bueckers, NFL player Keon Coleman and designer Daniel Buezo.
The new Levi’s® x Nike collection will be available starting in July on Levi.com, the Levi’s® app and in select Levi’s® stores.
