Coming off of their bye week, the Pittsburgh Steelers were supposed to be reunited with star running back Le’Veon Bell. As it stands right now, that is not the case as nothing has been reported, and the Black and Gold are five days away from their matchup against their in-division rival Cleveland Browns. Luckily, second year running back out of Pitt James Conner has been more than serviceable in his stead, and Antonio Brown and Big Ben are up to their old tricks. Frustrating at times, being a fan of one of the most iconic franchises in all of sports pays dividends in more than one way, as Nike just released a University Gold and Black version of the retro Air Max Speed Turf silhouette. Popularized in the mid-90s, this football trainer joins a long list of nostalgic Beaverton silhouettes getting more run in 2018. Of course, this model first picked up steam in ’95 when Miami Dolphins quarterback Dan Marino debuted a teal and orange colorway that instantly became a hit amongst both football and Swoosh fans alike. Ideal for today’s market, the Speed Turf dons an on-trend chunky structure, with a midfoot strap for aided lockdown as well as a visible Air Max bag for a signature NSW touch. Grab an official look at this Steel City colorway below and head over to Nike.com right now to grab a pair.
