Nike Air Max 95 SP Corteiz Gutta Green

The Nike Air Max 95 SP Corteiz Gutta Green is the green entry in the Corteiz and Nike run, and it is the pair that leans hardest into the Air Max 95's original DNA.

Why the 95 was the right silhouette

The Air Max 95 has always been a British shoe more than an American one, adopted here far more heavily than anywhere else. Handing it to a West London label was the obvious move, and Corteiz treated it as a shoe to wear rather than a shelf piece.

What the green does

Gutta Green runs across the layered upper panels, which is exactly where the 95's gradient construction shows colour best. Green is the harder shade to place in an outfit than black or grey, so it works as the single loud element with everything else kept plain.

How they run

• The Air Max 95 fits narrow through the midfoot compared with most Nike runners
• Wider feet are usually better going half a size up
• Visible Air cushioning in the heel and forefoot
• Layered panel upper, the detail the colourway is built around

Wearing them

Wide-leg cargos or Guerillaz shorts stacked over the top is how these were meant to be worn. The 95 has enough bulk to carry volume above it, which a slimmer trainer cannot. Keep the rest of the outfit neutral and let the green sit on its own.

Care

• Brush loose dirt off dry before any water touches them
• Clean the upper by hand with a soft brush and mild solution, never in a machine
• Air dry away from radiators and direct sun, which yellows midsoles
• Store out of the box with paper inside to hold the shape
