Muhammad Ali. Kerri Strug. Michael Johnson. United States of America. The 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta were arguably the greatest of all-time, and now, Nike is celebrating the 20th Anniversary with a special make-up of the Air Trainer SC High.
Drawing it's palette from the Atlanta games' official logo, the shoe is styled in green leather and suede, complemented by gold hardware and white on the tongue and straps. Peach embroidery on the left tongue is a symbolic nod the host city, while the laurel wreath marks the insoles and heel. As a final touch, the translucent outsole reveals a multicolor confetti graphic.
