Patent Leather Takes Over Deion Sanders’ Nike Air DT 2

Deion Sanders’ Nike Air DT 2 is getting another retro treatment this fall, this time with a glossy black-and-red look that feels right at home with Prime Time’s larger-than-life style.

Officially dressed in Black/Gym Red/Metallic Gold, the upcoming pair leans heavily into patent black across the upper, giving the already aggressive trainer a much sleeker finish. Gym Red breaks up the dark build across the branding, heel details, pull tabs, and smaller accents, while touches of Metallic Gold add another layer to the colorway.

The combination carries some serious hot-rod energy, especially when viewed alongside Sanders’ flashy Corvette-era style from his playing days. The glossy black finish and red detailing give the pair the same loud, polished feel associated with Prime Time’s off-field image during that period.

The Air DT 2 itself remains one of the most recognizable models tied to Sanders, with its exaggerated panels, midfoot strap, and bulky tooling making it unmistakably rooted in ’90s cross-training design.

The Nike Air DT 2 “Patent Black” is expected to release on November 13, 2026, in full-family sizing via select retailers and Nike.com. Men’s pairs are expected to retail for $170.
