Nike's Air Max 95 sneaker silhouette arrives in a new iteration that celebrates the Dominican Republic -- it is entitled the De Lo Mio. This colorway follows the sneaker's London-inspired shoe entitled '110' and continues to honor different geographical locations.
The latest update nods to the Dominican Republic with a bright colorway rooted with a white base foundation. It is made from a blend of rubber, leather, and mesh materials with the most notable details found at the 3M reflective detailing and the volt colors. The top of the shoe has three colors adorning the airmax label and additional details include the lime ripstop eyelets covering the forefoot and rounded off laces.
