While Bill Bowerman’s name might not ring out as loud as some other Nike big-wigs the co-founder is very much an icon in his own right, responsible for the initial handshake partnership with Phil Knight that got that footwear empire going in the first place. This two pair pack pays homage to the deceased Bowerman, dipping the Tinker Hatfield designed Nike Air Trainer 1 Mid Premium in a premium look that features Bill’s initials across the back along with his football jersey number (coincidentally the ’51’ doubles as a marker for the year in which he won the Bill Hayward Amateur Athlete of the Year award). Both pairs will launch on September 21st, so click through with us to make up your mind on which you’re copping and be advised that you can scoop up the Nike Air Trainer 1 Premium “BB51” a little early from spots like Crooked Tongues.
