New Kicks On The Blog - Online Magazine for the Sneaker Culture

The Nike Air Trainer TW II has most recently been seen as part of the Nike SB line, but it obviously started as a Nike cross-trainer well before it was adapted into a skate shoe. Now this fresh model will be back as a general release, shedding its SB tag for this latest version. These kicks are inspired by the Godfather of Nike Trainers, Bo Jackson. Like the Nike Air Trainer SC that we showed you last week, this Nike Air Trainer TW II sports a black and metallic silver Raiders color scheme in honor of one of the greatest athletes to ever live. In another tribute to Bo, his pixelated “Tecmo Bo” likeness is featured on the tongue label, a nod to his unstoppable abilities in the Nintendo classic, Tecmo Bowl. The shoe is expected to drop some time in July, so we’ll be sure to keep you up to date on the specific release info. In the meantime, you can get a great look at a bunch of pics if you check out that link.

Back in the late 80’s and early 90’s, the Nike Air Trainer line was given a big boost by the “Bo Knows” ad campaign. Bo Jackson was one of the most electrifying athletes you could ever watch and as an athlete endorser for Nike, he lent instant credibility to the kicks he sported, not only for his dazzling efforts on the baseball and football field, but for his likable personality and superhuman aura. The Nike Air Trainer SC has since gone on to reach classic status in the sneaker world and with plenty of excitement surrounding their new Nike Trainer 1 model, Nike has decided to re-release the Nike Air Trainer SC this winter in a colorway that’s is still near and dear to Bo. The kicks he made famous will be returning in a crisp Black/Grey color scheme that is obviously influenced by Jackson’s days as an L.A. Raider. You can expect these super-fresh classics to hit shelves some time during the holiday ‘09 season. Stay tuned for specific release info and be sure to check out a bunch more pics after checking that link.
