It is not out of the ordinary to find Lego builders tinkering with their fantasy and creating Nike sneakers out of LEGO pieces alone. You would remember the Hungarian builder Tamás Borján, who created a Nike Air Jordan 11 using nothing but our beloved plastic building blocks. It is the creations like these that have always left us fans yearning for an official partnership between our two loves – LEGO and Nike – to come together for an official shoe that you and I can flaunt.

Our wish was granted last year when the two brands tied the knot; coming together to “inspire a world where sport and creative play always win.” Leaving us bearded out of the fun, the partnership is directed at promoting ‘sports and creative play’ for all kids. If it doesn’t bother you, and you want to appreciate what the two stalwarts in their own ways are creating, check out the LEGO x Nike Air Max Dn: the first fruit of their merriment sprouting out in pictures on the internet.

Designer: Nike

It’s darn yellow for a shoe, but that’s probably the color kids need to walk the streets in 2025. The playful outing in LEGO’s signature yellow, is fun and fantastic for Nike, and that love for this collaboration shows vividly on the sneaker. The Swoosh brand has not shied away from sharing the branding and overlaying the upper with tactile rubber studs that mimic the plastic bricks.

Nike takes the Swoosh from the lateral setting and slaps it on the back of the heel counter and under the foot. The sides of the shoe instead have the rubber studs, while the usual Air Max Dn on the tongue label is replaced with the LEGO logo. For more nuances, the Air Bubbles in the sole feature logos and minifigures. And because it’s dear, the sneaker is not coming out without a matching package. A special packaging has therefore been prepared for the collaborative silhouette.

While you’d expect the LEGO x Nike Air Max Dn to land as soon as possible, there is no definite release date yet. Speculation is, the sneaker could release in kids’ sizing in August this year, starting at $160. Both Nike and LEGO have chosen to stay silent on this for now. But, back in 2024 when they sealed the multi-year collaboration deal, a line-up of co-branded products was assured to be released this year. The LEGO x Nike Air Max Dn could be the start of a long list of Nike products with LEGO treatment we are going to see in the coming days. So are you game for this cool pair of shoes?
