The Air Max 95 skate shoe beef just got another update.
According to reports, 7-Eleven has dropped its lawsuit against Nike over the sneaker’s red, orange, and green color scheme, closing out a legal battle that started just months after the shoes made headlines.
Filed in July 2026, the lawsuit accused Nike of using colors associated with the convenience store chain in a way that could lead customers to believe 7-Eleven had a connection to or endorsed the release.

The sneakers were scheduled to drop on July 11, better known as 7-Eleven Day.
The case also comes amid growing attention around Nike’s skateboarding footwear, with Lord Williams calling out Eric Koston surrounding the Air Max 95 skate shoes and “Run, Skate, Chill” slogan being stolen from Williams.
With skate culture continuing to intersect with Nike’s sneaker releases, the design dispute brought an unexpected corporate clash.
On October 19, 7-Eleven voluntarily dismissed the lawsuit with prejudice. That means the company cannot bring the same claims against Nike again. However, the filing did not reveal whether the two companies reached a private settlement.
There was also no court ruling on whether Nike’s Air Max 95 design infringed on 7-Eleven’s trademarks, so the dismissal should not be taken as a legal victory for either side.
