Bo Jackson's Nike Air Trainer 3 was originally released in 1988 and was made famous with the "Medicine Ball" colorway which was recently implemented onto the Nike LeBron 16. It's a classic Nike shoe that was most recently brought back to the fold in 2014, although we haven't seen it since. Nike has been preoccupied with bringing a plethora of classic sneakers back in 2019, so why not add one more to the list with this vintage staple.
The shoe is famous for its toe strap and unique colorway that features a mixture of white, blue, and ginger brown leather. This sneaker brings back the 80s vibes that were made so famous by Jackson, who was one of few players who enjoyed a career in both baseball and football.
