Nike is poised to redefine sneaker innovation with the upcoming release of the Nike Air Max DN8 “Bred” in early 2025. This latest evolution of the Air Max line introduces a groundbreaking design feature: eight distinct Air bubbles along the side profile. Fans of the iconic Air Max technology will appreciate this fresh visual twist that pays homage to heritage while pushing the boundaries of modern shoe design.
The “Bred” colorway, a sleek combination of black and red, captures the essence of classic Nike aesthetics. The upper features a bold black base accented with bold red details, including a metallic black and silver swoosh near the heel. This sophisticated palette ensures the sneaker stands out on the street or in a collection.
This is the first significant redesign of the Air Max DN, and Nike has infused it with both style and performance. The eight air chambers are not just for show; they enhance the comfort and responsiveness of the sneaker. The rear two Dn Air chambers are pressurized at a higher 15 psi, while the front two are set at a softer 5 psi. This uneven pressurization extends to the forefoot units, promising an even more comfortable ride for the wearer.

The design of the Air Max DN8 is inspired by past classics like the Air Max 96. The upper features signature tidal wave patterns that align with each Dn Air bubble in the sole, creating a harmonious visual flow. There are also nods to the Air Max 2002, though this model introduces the unique tube layout that sets it apart from its predecessors.
The Nike Air Max DN8 “Bred” is expected to be available in a variety of colorways beyond the initial release. With the success of the Air Max Dn in numerous colorways, the DN8 will continue that tradition and offer options for every style.
Keep an eye out for its arrival in stores during Air Max Month 2025.
