This Nike Trainer 1 Mid in medium grey/black/chlorophyll reps for tennis bad boy turned commentator John McEnroe. It arrives at select Foot Locker stores (pairs are limited) around the same time as the “Bo Knows” Trainer 1, as early as next week. The inside of the tongue features a “Mac Knows” tag, stemming from McEnroe’s appearance in the infamous “Bo Knows” commercials.
Oh you forgot about McEnroe? Check :12 on this Nike “Bo, you don’t know Diddley” spot from the 90’s.
The “Mac Knows” features a grey upper with hits of chlorophyll on the tongue lining and Nike logos. Towards the heel on the lateral side of the upper is a stitched tennis player figure. The sock-liner has a tennis ball design. For more shots check the Gallery.

[...] The shoe comes in a grey/black/chlorophyll colorway with “Mac Knows” seen on the inside of the tongue. The heel portion depicts what may be presumed as a very eccentric tennis player which McEnroe was every sense of the term. Also, the insole is given a tennis ball design which pays tribute to the player. You can pick up your pair some time this month so keep your cool and stay tuned for more info.

[...] Know-it-all superbrat John McEnroe is in line to receive his very own ‘Mac Knows’ Trainer 1 Mid. The shoe’s black, grey and chlorophyll upper features an embroidered silhouette below the ankle capturing McEnroe in mid-celebrations (or possibly mid dummy-spit). It’s a fitting tie-in given McEnroe’s appearance in the legendary Bo Knows campaigns for the original Air Trainer series and the fact he wore them famously as a player! Look out for limited number of these to start arriving in the coming week. News via Footlocker. [...]
