Nike Air Trainer SC II ‘Faded Olive’
Nov 18th
Bo Jackson was one of those rare athletes that could essentially dominate any sport he tried his hand at. The Nike Air Trainer SC II is his signature shoe, and in this “Faded Olive” colorway, it seems like a statement of also dominating the outdoors. Celebrating Bo’s love for archery (and we’re serious here), the mid-top sneaker comes in a faded olive colorway with a black and gum outer sole. The upper also sports 8-bit video game inspired pixelated versions of both tiger and woodland camo, with the former a nod to Bo’s collegiate alma mater. To finish it off, a large digital “34” is embroidered on the heel.
Available in stores and online Saturday. Check out Release Locator for stores.

Nike Air Trainer Huarache Premium Emerald
Sep 24th
The Nike Huarache platform was one of Nike’s earliest attempts to give athletes exactly what they need to perform and nothing more. Designed under the lens of reduction, and continually improving on that mentality over the years, the minimalist approach inspired a new generation of footwear designers that believe in stripping products to the necessary components for elite performance. Twenty-three years after the debut of the Air Huarache, Nike Sportswear set out to create a cross-training version of the sneaker. The OG colorway of the Nike Air Trainer Huarache features a white leather base with accents in Dark Emerald, Black and Medium Berry throughout, including the berry-colored translucent midfoot strap.

Nike Air Trainer SC III “Bo Knows Horse Racing”

Bo Jackson is a two-sport marvel, performing on a high-level on both the gridiron and the diamond.
