High fashion working with sportswear labels has become commonplace in the footwear industry, with many luxury brands and designers teaming up with Nike. Previously, The Swoosh worked with Martine Rose, who brought formalwear to the Nike Shox line through her Shox MR4 and Monarch IV collaborations. Brendan Dunne of Complex has reported that Martine Rose will work with Nike on a new colorway of an archival Nike Air Max model, the Air Max Craze, in Fall 2025. Shortly after this, it was confirmed that this project is no longer happening and instead, the two labels will work no another silhouette.

The Air Max Craze was released in the early 2000s to little fanfare and features an open-back construction supported by a heel counter. As with many designs of this era, it leaned heavily into the tech vibes, as evident with the grid patterns, wavy contours, and chunky sole unit. No color or design details about Martine Rose’s take on the silhouette have been confirmed. If her past projects with Nike are any indication, the sneaker will likely be reshaped and reimagined into a more traditional piece of footwear. On top of this collaborative pair, inline colorways are also expected to be released throughout 2025.

The Martine Rose x Nike Air Max Craze W was rumored to release in Fall 2025 through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. However, this project has been scrapped and is no longer in the cards. While this release is no longer happening, plenty of inline colorways, such as the Air Max Craze Black Bright Citrus, can be seen below.
