Swing for the fences—because the Nike Air Griffey Max 1 “Varsity Royal” is stepping back up to the plate! Returning Spring 2026, this retro banger delivers heavy-hitting ’90s baseball vibes with zero chill.
Dressed in a head-turning Varsity Royal nubuck upper, this shoe screams power hitter energy. Paired with clean white leather and a bold black Swoosh, it’s ready for everything—from ballparks to barbecues.
That iconic “24” strap? Still here and flexing harder than a home run trot. Add in Volt hits and those visible Max Air units, and you’ve got a sneaker that’s louder than a sold-out stadium.
Oh, and don’t sleep on that outsole—custom tread keeps your grip strong, whether you’re rounding bases or dodging grocery store carts.
