Nike SB is teaming up with Nike again during Spring 2026, launching a new Nike SB x Nike Air Max2 CB ’94 "Varsity Red".
Although it is too early to discuss an official release date, multiple sources have confirmed a new limited-edition drop from 2026. According to internal Nike documents, the brand is launching a new Nike SB Air Max2 CB ’94 model during Spring 2026. The release information was published by Sneaker Files.
The model comes with product code Nike SB x Nike Air Max2 CB '94 "Varsity Red" and the "White/Varsity Red/White/Gum Light Brown" color scheme. At the moment, the color blocking is not known. However, we already have an image of the pair. It is very likely that the model will feature a color scheme similar to the Air Jordan 4 “Friends & Family” model. The brand has not yet confirmed the release rumors. In general, Nike avoids confirming rumors about limited-edition releases. We will most likely find out more details about the release from the Nike SB team soon.
When is Nike SB x Nike Air Max2 CB ’94 “Varsity Red” releasing?
The Nike SB x Nike Air Max2 CB ’94 "Varsity Red" is releasing during Spring 2026 on Nike.com and at select Nike Skateboarding partner stores. For now, the brand has not yet confirmed an exact release date. However, several retailers have already added the model to their launch calendars. We already know that the model is part of the seasonal Nike Spring 2026 catalog. As a result, we expect the pair to release within the first three months of the year.
