When it comes to baseball, there’s only one sneaker that is universally renowned as a bonafide icon, and that’s The Kid’s Nike Air Griffey Max 1. A streetwear staple since its debut in 1996, its aggressive-yet-organic design paired with its striking color contrast is almost as iconic as Junior’s smooth swing. It celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2021 with an onslaught of colorways new and old, but it appears that there are a few stragglers to come — including this all-new Nike Air Griffey Max 1 “USA” for 2022
With summer wear on its mind, the pair presents in a patriotic mix of tumbled white leathers, royal blue nubuck overlays, forefoot Swooshes, and straps, before pepperings of red are worked in for that Americana association. The latter not only works at the Swooshes, eyestays, and strap hardware but also on the pair’s Air supports and outsole tread to complete the design.
Take a look at the official images of the Nike Air Griffey Max 1 “USA” below, and expect to see this patriotic pair hit select Swoosh stockists and Nike.com hopefully in time for the Fourth of July. As always, keep your eyes glued to our official Twitter account for further updates.
