Nike just dialed up the drama with the Air Max Craze “University Red”—and no, this is not your average red sneaker. This one’s here to turn heads, melt sidewalks, and maybe cause a few double-takes at the gym.
Combining early 2000s nostalgia with modern flair, the upper features a gridded pattern and flame-inspired graphics near the toe. Who needs laces when you’ve got a zipper system that looks like it belongs in a sci-fi movie? Plus, that pink-to-red gradient? Chef’s kiss.
The “University Red” and “Hyper Pink” combo screams bold romance, while black and white accents keep things grounded—just enough. Even the outsole gets wild, with pink and red detailing that looks ready to leave a trail of style behind you.
The Nike Air Max Craze “University Red” releases Summer 2025 via Nike.com and select retailers. Retail price: $170.
This Nike Air Max Craze isn’t just sporty—it’s a statement. Whether you’re flexing at the gym or just strolling through summer, these kicks get the job done with flair.
