Original article posted February 5th, 2024: After initial reports back in October 2023, a first look at 2024’s Nike Air Tech Challenge II “Hot Lava” retro has been revealed by the man himself after a heated 2v2 pickleball match-up involved tennis legends.

On February 4th, Andre Agassi, teamed up with wife and fellow tennis icon Steffi Graf, battled Jon McEnroe and Maria Sharapova in a game of pickleball with a $1 million purse on the line. He and his beau easily took home the prize, doing so wearing the 2024 iteration of his iconic tennis shoe from 1991.

The Air Tech Challenge II, designed by Tinker Hatfield, is considered to be one of the greatest Nike footwear designs in history. It also helped popularize the blazing hot red shade on Swoosh footwear, adding an element of personality in a sport that once had strict on-court rules regarding attire.

Currently, a release is expected this Fall 2024 season with an MSRP of $150. It last released in 2016, so this re-issue should be met with open arms.

In other Nike updates, here’s the latest on the Kobe 9 “Gift Of Mamba”.
