We showed you the Trainer SC in blk/gry last week, and now you can check out the Trainer II LE, also in Raider’s silver and black.
This Nike Air Trainer II LE blk/mts-white arrives at Foot Locker in July, an update on Bo Jackson’s original cross-trainer. The metallic silver swoosh and patent strap shine off of the black upper, with gray contrasting laces.
A great detail is the pixelated football player on the tongue, resembling “Tecmo Bo” the Bo Jackson character in the classic Nintendo game Tecmo Bowl, and possibly the greatest videogame athlete of all-time. As an OG Nintendo enthusiast I definitely remember the “no Raiders” rule of 1-on-1 game play since Tecmo Bo could not be stopped; just like the NBA Jam 3-pointers of Mitch Richmond. More shots in the gallery.
