Though he’s always eminently quotable, Deion Sanders’ “Look Good, Feel Good…” is his most lasting for good reason. A master of style during his legendary career, he’s leveraged his eye consistently throughout his renewed relationship with Nike. As we wade through the dog days of the football schedule, post-draft and pre-season in both the pros and college ranks, Coach Prime is vaulting himself back into the consciousness with a blast of new colorways posted to his social media profiles.

Those who have followed the public releases of Deion Sanders shoes will immediately spot a few colorways we were already familiar with: Colorado’s previous logo, The Nike LeBron 21 “Prime ’96” in white/red, LeBron 21 “Prime ’93” in similar shades, the Nike DT Max ’96 “Love Letter To Connie,” and impending Nike Air Diamond Turf “Ravens” are on full display.

However, some never-before-seen offerings slide in alongside: one blacked-out, one grey-heavy, and one silvery pair of the DT Max ’96 carry trademark “Metallic Gold” flair. A final entrant flexes the black and yellow colors the school utilized from 1985 to 2005. Perhaps more intriguing are two fresh pairs of the hoops-meets-gridiron Prime ’93. The first seems likely to remain a PE, given that it again leverages the Buffaloes’ black and gold. The other refers to the Air Diamond Turf “Emerald,” making a significant impact in its last 2010 release and set to return for Fall 2025.

It’s genuinely anyone’s guess whether any of the pairs previewed here eventually hit the public. On one hand, Sanders himself asks which of these should release, but he’s also showcased exclusive Buffaloes colorways before. Either way, these makeups are still plenty intriguing even from a distance — catch all of Deion’s images included below. We’ll be sure to keep you in the loop if we get any indication they’re going wide by updating this page and our Sneaker Release Dates hub.
