Nike Air Max 95 Blue Tint - HJ5996-002
This release nods to the soft blues of the 2019 “Aluminium” pair, a colourway many collectors still regret sleeping on. Anyone who managed to keep their 2019 pair alive until now deserves respect, but even the most loyal will find it hard to turn down this updated version.
The upper is classic Air Max 95, blending suede, mesh and layered gradients. Light grey shifts into baby blue, creating a smooth fade that looks even better in person. “Blue Tint” accents hit the lace loops, tongue overlay and mesh panels, while a mini Swoosh sits on the heel. The white lining gives the shoe that crisp finish that makes pale-blue 110s so clean for summer fits.
Underfoot, the Big Bubble returns. Nike’s once shelved design that has become the highlight of recent 95 releases. More cushioning, more comfort, more heritage. For anyone who remembers older models feeling like bricks after a long day, this is a welcome upgrade.
Soft blue 110s always hit the sweet spot in Merseyside. They’re wearable, they’re understated and they sit perfectly in that lane between everyday and collectible. At Block P, we’ve seen how anything in the baby blue spectrum gets snapped up fast, it’s one of those colours that works across styles, ages and seasons.
Expect these to be a favourite for people who want something fresh without shouting too loudly. A refined pair that still carries that 110 identity.
If you’re into minimal, clean everyday colour ways or you missed the chance to pick up “Aluminium” back in 2019, the Blue Tint is an easy yes.
If you rock 110s daily, this might be the pair you end up rinsing all year.
If you’re a collector, this adds a cool, calm contrast to the louder OGs in the lineup.
