The Air DT Max '96 has always had a clear identity: it's the high-top cleat Deion Sanders wore on the field, with an upper that wraps above the ankle and colorways that never held back. This time, Nike is cutting it down—introducing the Air DT Max '96 Low, with the collar trimmed below the ankle for a standard running-shoe silhouette, dressed in one of the most restrained palettes possible: white.

Tagged with style code IO4223-100, this "Triple White" colorway builds a white base with Metallic Silver and Light Smoke Grey accents at the heel and detailing. Rather than leaning on contrasting colors, the shoe lets material sheen and subtle grey tonal shifts do the talking. Compared to the DT Max '96's usual loud energy, this low-top version strips away the drama and lets the shape speak for itself.

The Nike Air DT Max '96 Low "Triple White" is set to release August 7, 2026 for $170, available on Nike.com and at select retailers including Dick's Sporting Goods, JD Sports, Finish Line, and Foot Locker.
