We thought the Metallic Platinum Quickstrike was going to be the final colorway of the Nike Air Griffey Max 1, but arriving in Spring 2011 is a White, Black, Sport Red, and Metallic Silver colorway. the upper features a white base with a sport red overlay with a metallic silver Air unit and black “eye-liner” on midsole. These are just preliminary rendered images so we can get a firm grasp of what this colorway will look like. These are an obvious tribute to his injury-ridden days playing for the Cincinnati Reds, but remember he did make the 2007 National League All-Star team, displaying prime form with 23 dingers and 59 RBI by the All-Star break. During the ’07 ASG, Griffey wore a cleat version of a very similar colorway – white base, red overlay, black forefoot swoosh – so this upcoming Air Griffey Max 1 colorway is surely a special one as it is a reminder of Griffey’s final All-Star Game appearance (those darn injuries!). Continue reading for another look as well as an image of Griffey with the cleat-version of this colorway and let us know where this upcoming pair ranks among all AGM1 colorways.

Did you know… Nike doesn't use the swingman logo in Asia. This is because when consumers see it, they think it is a Fly Fisherman. Pretty interesting how different cultures interpret logos.
August 10th, 2010 at 9:26 pm
Love this colorway!!!!

August 11th, 2010 at 2:57 pm
I slept one the fresh waters twice!! Because I wear size 6, and I didn't know that they came in my size until I found the Volts in my size at a local boutique(TRUE in SF). Then I copped the infareds, I slept on the tripple blacks which I regret now, but at the moment I thought dude they're all blk… and then they re-stocked on the fresh waters again and on midnight I tried to get my size and they were gone in a blink of an eye…so I order the grey/teal and I just had a hard time getting the last ones that dropped. So now I hope these come out in my size.
August 11th, 2010 at 4:05 pm
