A Legendary Anime Sneaker Brought to Life

The Yu-Gi-Oh! x Nike Air Max Muscle 95 "Joey" is a dream come true for anime fans and sneaker collectors alike. For the first time ever, Nike brings Joey Wheeler’s iconic sneakers from the original Yu-Gi-Oh! anime to life, merging over two decades of nostalgia with the bold design language of the Air Max 95.

A Design Steeped in Authentic Detail

This special edition comes dressed in multiple shades of blue that directly mirror the anime’s visuals. The layered panel construction, unique lace loops, and subtle gradient effects perfectly match Joey’s on-screen footwear. Scratch-like graphics on the midsole nod to battle-worn sneakers in the Yu-Gi-Oh! universe, while the neon green Air units add a striking contrast. The outsole features a Yu-Gi-Oh! logo, and the insoles are decorated with Joey Wheeler and his legendary Red-Eyes Black Dragon.

Exclusive Packaging and Collectible Cards

Every pair is housed in a premium box adorned with anime artwork and comes with official, playable Nike x Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Cards – marking the first time a sneaker brand has co-created official TCG cards with KONAMI. A matching apparel line will also release, reimagining the Domino High School varsity look with premium materials and co-branded detailing.

Release Information

The Yu-Gi-Oh! x Nike Air Max Muscle 95 "Joey" is set to release on September 12 via SNKRS and select retailers worldwide. With Yu-Gi-Oh! still enjoying a massive global fanbase, this drop is expected to sell out quickly. Collectors and fans alike should act fast to avoid high resell prices. More confirmed details are expected soon.
