Nike Air Griffey Max 1 [Varsity Royal / White / Volt]The “Fresh Water” Air Griffey Max 1 sold out lighting fast when they released back in March, and now the second version, the “Varsity Royal” Air Griffey, is now available online.

The “Varsity Royal” Air Griffey Max 1 yields a white, royal, black, and volt colorway, all wrapped up in one of the top signature Nike models. This shoe gives you everything that OG version offered back in the mid 80s/90s. After this pair there’s going to be two more colorways, the “Black/Black” Air Griffey & “Black/White/Red” Air Griffey and then we’ll probably have to wait 10+ more years for another re-release. So, if your feeling these shoes please cop a pair sooner than later or you’ll be cashing out some serious money in the re-seller market.
