Bo Jackson is regarded as one of the greatest athletes of all time, excelling in professional baseball and football. His dual-sport career, playing for the Kansas City Royals and the Oakland Raiders, made him a legend on and off the field. During his heyday, Jackson became the face of Nike's Air Trainer SC silhouette, a model as versatile as the man himself. Many of the colorways released over the years have paid homage to the teams Jackson played for, and this Fall, Nike is set to drop a special Raiders Helmet rendition of the Air Trainer SC High, just in time for the NFL season.
The Nike Air Trainer SC High Raiders Helmet edition features a classic and timeless design, echoing the iconic silver and black colors of the Oakland Raiders. The sneaker has a perforated leather base, with white hues dominating the panels. The canvas tongue features a white and grey finish, subtly contrasting. Multi-layered panels on the midfoot are rendered in various grey shades, complemented by black-lined nylon straps that host TPU eyestays for added durability and support. The black Swoosh adds a bold accent to the design, while the Nike text on the heel is also lined in black, maintaining the Raiders' signature color scheme. Underfoot, the sneaker is finished with a white, black, and grey Air Trainer SC midsole and a matching black and grey outsole, ensuring a perfect blend of style and performance.
The Nike Air Trainer SC High Raiders Helmet will release on August 20th, 2024, through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Coming in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $135, with grade school sizes available for $95.
