Nike x Yu-Gi-Oh! Air Max 95 “Air Muscle”/Joey: The Three Cards That Came With It

Dark cover: "Nike x Yu-Gi-Oh! Air Max 95" headline, with a Red-Eyes Black Dragon SE promo card photo printed "NOT FOR SALE".

In September 2025, Nike teamed up with Yu-Gi-Oh! to release the exact sneaker Jonouchi Katsuya wears in the anime — the Air Max 95 “Air Muscle”. Two promo cards came bundled with the shoe, plus a rarer, event-and-magazine-only card. Here’s a close look at all three, straight from the card faces.

The short version

  • Nike x Yu-Gi-Oh! Air Max 95 “Air Muscle”/Joey released September 12, 2025.
  • Two cards came bundled with every pair: WINDS OF VICTORY (a Spell Card) and Poisonous Scorpion Trap SE (a Trap Card).
  • A third, rarer card — Red-Eyes Black Dragon SE, printed “NOT FOR SALE” — was only available at the “House of Duel” event or bundled with a Weekly Shonen Jump issue.

Why this pair is worth knowing about

The Air Max 95 “Air Muscle” is the exact sneaker Jonouchi Katsuya (Joey Wheeler) wears throughout the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime — this collab turned an in-show sneaker into a real, purchasable one.

Of the three cards, Red-Eyes Black Dragon SE was NOT bundled with the shoe — getting one meant attending the “House of Duel” event in person, or picking up the right issue of Weekly Shonen Jump. It’s the hardest of the three to find.

Frequently asked questions

Where does each card’s “Product link” go?

To that card’s search results on Collect2Day, so you can see current listings directly. Every search term was tested live on Collect2Day on September 8, 2026 to confirm it returns relevant results before being used.

Why couldn’t you just get Red-Eyes Black Dragon SE with the shoe, like the other two?

WINDS OF VICTORY and Poisonous Scorpion Trap SE came bundled with every pair sold. Red-Eyes Black Dragon SE didn’t — it was distributed only at the “House of Duel” event (September 5–7, 2025) or bundled with the September 8, 2025 issue of Weekly Shonen Jump, making it the most limited of the three.
