At first glance, One Block Down’s black Air Max 95 looks almost exactly how you’d expect a dark AM95 to look. Then you realize one of the most familiar textures on the shoe isn’t what it appears to be. The section near the toe mimics the look of traditional mesh, but release reporting says it’s actually textured leather, giving the silhouette a familiar visual language through a completely different material.
