Jordan's Chunky Dad Shoe Thinks It's an Air Max
This isn't a new Nike Air Max sneaker. It's actually the Jordan Brand's newest casual sneaker, the DMSN 95.
It's essentially an Air Jordan 11 from another dimension, sprinkled with some Air Max flavoring and classic dadcore energy. The Jordan DMSN even borrows the AJ11's Air-infused soles, while the "95" part of its name nods to the model's debut year.
It also sort of resembles the chunky Air Max Moto 2K, but outfitted in Jumpman clothes.
The Jordan DMSN 95, however, has a different upper construction than the classic AJ11. For example, the all-black pair features molded layers, plus crisp leather and breathable underlays.
A redesigned, low-cut Jordan 11 sounds a lot like an RM model, if you ask me. And it basically is, just minus the official Restomod moniker. The Jordan Ultra functions in the same way, borrowing Jordan 3 details for a low-top "dad shoe" style. It's the closest thing we'll get to a Jordan 3 RM.
Like the RM models, Nike's Jordan DMSN 95 sneaker also comes in some nice colorways. Again, the sneaker started its era with a nice "Black/Smoke Grey" colorway, which is not only clean but sort of calls back to the iconic "Cap and Gown" look. It certainly knows its roots.
For those looking to cop, the Jordan DMSN 95 dad sneaker is now available on Nike's website for $135.
