If you’re not old enough to have had the opportunity to watch Michael Jordan play, chances are you’ve never seen Ken Griffey Jr. in action. Griffey played in the pros up until 2010, but he wasn’t the swagtastic home-run swatter for most of the decade. It was during his Seattle days that he gained prominence as an unusual power-hitter (he was much smaller than guys like McGwire and Sosa), but remember that he was also quite deft with the glove as center field roamer. Even if you didn’t have the opportunity to watch the man with the sweetest lefty power-swing of all time, you can still enjoy Nike Griffeys as they offer a different sneaker style not seen in runners, Jordans, or basketball kicks. If you need a reminder again, the OG Black/Freshwater colorway of the Nike Air Griffey Max 1 has a set release date of August 10th, so check out the new images below and let us know if these mid-August drops are a must-have for you. via kicks-crew
