Bo Jackson’s Nike Air Trainer SC has been seeing more momentum lately as the high-top offering in the retro “Auburn” colorway is making a comeback once again. Back in February, the silhouette surfaced on the internet in a Kansas City “Royals” uniform in honor of the former American pro baseball and football player’s time spent playing for the MLB team.

The current installment was last seen in early 2017 which was produced as a nod to Jackson’s alma mater, the University of Auburn. Before turning pro in both the NFL and MLB, the Alabama native ran for 4,303 career yards as a running back and claimed the Heisman Trophy in 1985 all the while increasing his statistics within baseball. In 1996, Jackson was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame.

Starting off with a pure white leather base, the laterals are outfitted with overlays in a mix of fabrics in blue, orange and gray along with a silver Swoosh. Additional eyelet supports are seen in the same orange and blue hues with a fuzzy tongue peeping out featuring a debossed “NIKE.” A strip of orange lays over a white midsole housing an Air unit by the heel, while the forefoot outsole adds contrast in blue.

The Nike Air Trainer SC High “Auburn” is set to release in the coming months at select retailers and via Nike.

For more releases to check out, this Nike Air Force 1 Low features glitched Swooshes.
