Nike’s decision to re-sign Deion Sanders in 2023 was a wise one, fully opening the floodgates for retro releases of his signature shoes. Following an Air DT Max 96 retro run in 2024, the Beaverton brand plans to shift focus to the dual-sport athlete’s first Nike signature next year. On top of the “Atlanta” colorway and a fresh black and gold look tributing Sanders’ signing with Nike, we’re learning that the Air Diamond Turf will also come back in its original “Emerald” colorway during the Fall 2025 shopping season.
Official images of the 2025 release aren’t available at this stage, but all indications suggest the shoe will look identical to the original and subsequent retros. The black, white, and teal colorway debuted in 1994 as a part of the model’s inaugural run, later returning to shelves in 2010 and 2017 (pictured above). Unlike the aforementioned “Atlanta” colorway and most Deion Sanders shoes, the “Emerald” Diamond Turf isn’t inspired by any of Primetime’s various NFL or MLB teams.
