The New York Knicks have advanced to the NBA Finals for the first time since 1999. To celebrate, Kith founder and Knicks creative director Ronnie Fieg put in a special request to Nike—to make the Kith x Nike Air Max 95 “NYC” available to the public in adult sizes. Thankfully, Nike has agreed.
The Kith x Nike Air Max 95 “NYC” (aka “Knicks”) originally released exclusively in kids’ sizes as part of the brand’s Kithmas 2025 offerings, with only 36 pairs made in adult sizes for friends and family. With the Knicks facing off against the Spurs tonight in Game 1, Kith has now opened a pre-order raffle for a chance to cop a pair.
The shoe features a pig suede upper with Kith and Nike monogram debossing on the lateral side panels, Kith embossed in big letters across the medial side, Kith Air branding on the heels, and additional co-branding on the tongues and insoles. The gradient grey color blocking pulls from the OG Air Max 95 “Neon,” while orange and blue accents nod to the colors of the Knicks and the NYC flag.
Even though this is a pre-order, demand is high, and quantities are capped due to manufacturing constraints such as finite raw materials and factory time. Not everyone who enters the raffle will secure a pair. Estimated production and delivery time is six months, so expect them to arrive around December.
The pre-order raffle for the Nike x Nike Air Max 95 “NYC” (aka “Knicks”) is now open on the Kith app exclusively in the US, with entries accepted until the start of Game 4 on June 10th at 8:30pm EST. Check out the pair below.
