The Nike Air Max 96 II "Blackened Blue" released on June 10, 2021, at 09:00 CET for €180. It launched on the same day as the "Beach" colorway of the same model. The Air Max 96 first released in 1996 as part of the Air Max running line, and the Air Max 96 II continued that design. The "Blackened Blue" version gave the runner a darker look. Several European stores offered the pair through online drops, and second chance options were listed afterward for anyone who missed it. Today, the Air Max 96 II "Blackened Blue" is mostly available on marketplaces such as KLEKT.
