Nike releases awesome classic NFL shoes from Raiders Bo Jackson (PHOTOS)

For those of you who may not be familiar with the legend that is Bo Jackson, buckle up—this one is for you. Nike has just released the new “Raiders Helmet” Air Trainer SC High and it pays homage to one of the greatest athletes on both the football field and the baseball diamond.

These kicks aren’t just sneakers; they’re a tribute to a legend who dominated not one, but two major North American sports.

Let’s go back. Bo Jackson wasn’t just any athlete; he was a true phenomenon. He is the only professional athlete in history to be named an All-Star in both Major League Baseball and the NFL. Bo was an absolute beast who left fans in awe on every field. And for Raiders fans, Bo’s legendary status needs no introduction.

Here Bo shows his arm for the Chicago White Sox:

Bo’s time with the Raiders was nothing short of spectacular. Not only did he break records and defend, but he also became the face of one of Nike’s most iconic advertising campaigns. From 1988 to 1991, Bo starred in a series of unforgettable commercials directed by Spike Lee that let the world know that “Bo knows it all” – football, baseball, and anything else he could think of.

To honor Bo’s time with the Raiders, Nike has brought back the Air Trainer SC High in a “Raiders Helmet” colorway. These kicks are a nod to the legend himself, with design elements that scream old-school. The black, white and silver colors reflect the iconic Raiders helmet, while the classic high-top design is a throwback to the era when Bo ruled the sports world.
