Nike Air Max 95 x LEGO® Set (LEGO 43025)

About this set

This is LEGO set 43025, the Nike Air Max 95 x LEGO set from the LEGO Nike line, a scene-category build with 1213 pieces and a difficulty of 4/5. The finished model is a sneaker sitting on a brick-built base, with black, white and gray forming the body and yellow, blue and purple layered across it to echo the Air Max 95's signature gradient panels; the base also carries transparent brick accents and a minifigure. My advice is to press the sole and midsole structure together firmly first, then build the upper layer by layer. Because the color blocking is heavy and same-colored parts are easy to mix up, sort by color before you start. The toe and side curves have a tight clutch, and that is where most of the 4/5 difficulty lives. The base is straightforward, so build it first as a reference and align the shoe on it afterward. This suits builders who know their way around bricks and want a sneaker-shaped display piece, and also sneaker collectors drawn to the Air Max 95 colorway; the minifigure and clear accents make it a small scene rather than just a shoe. At 1213 pieces it is no quick build, so spreading it over two or three sessions works better.
