Can't believe these are dropping. Going to be a great 2012 year for Nike. Just need to put the volt air bag on the blk/wht cw and we are good.
Oh My! Speed Turf AKA Dan Marino's Coming Summer 2012!!

Well, as I live in Holland that doesn't really ring a bell and besides, I doubt if these ever released here... Nike wasn't as big then as they are now...Originally Posted by GL Rayner

I do remember John Wallace wearing these when he played for Syracuse.
Still, great shoe though, especially that white/blue cw.

Im excited to see these finally being released. the acquisition and releases like this really are a sign of greater things to come. Even doing predominant CWs. i.e. Air Barrages

Will definitely cop the Dan Marino colorway of these joints. Never had them as a kid, but I remember them well.

Ahhh...., can someone school me
whether John Wallece wore them on the basketball court
or he did try playing Football also while still in college and wore them or something?
I only remember him as a basketball player and thus,
just can't think of him wearing this one tho.....
Or, was there other John Wallace played for Syracuse at the time these were out?

With Nike taking over the NFL contract, expect to start seeing a lot more focus on Training, including Training from NSW going forward...Originally Posted by WallyHopp
Was this NT influenced? I have seen threads pop up for years and years about these guys... The time has come?
First of all..... HELL YES!
Now that that's out of the way. Colors better be right or its all for nothing
We need that darker aqua. I don't want "miami beach blue". They might as well make the orange pink, if that's the case.
and brighter VOLT like airbag
The retro is dying for some POP of color somewhere.. OGs had it.
Sample photos have continually been wrong. So the wait begins to see the real deal.
Those green ones remind me of a Reggie White air pro streak PE he wore for GB in 96', but these take me back to his Eagle days 4 years before that... Like a combination of 3 things here
As for these two colorways...as far as color goes...they appear very much to be true to the original in person, including the Volt airbag on the Black/White...

I never thought of that NFL angle. That is some great news.
Maybe a re-retro of the barry sanders zoom turfs?
Maybe the brett favre turf jets?
Air Missions... Pro Streaks? Air Bus? Maybe a new breed performance high top turf trainer? Everything now is really low cut or mid cut.
I just hope they dont forget the origins of cross trainers.. 2012 marks the 25th anniversary of the at1s. I sat at home a few nights ago performing surgery on almost every one of my 2000 at1 chlorophylls. They've all be relegated to casual use only.
It's kind of funny how I rambled on about how these likely dont have the correct outsole for court usage, and then we had John Wallace defy all odds (much like that Arizona player in the Griffey Fury Maxes)

Is there any chance that Nike starts to make sig shoes for some of the star NFL players. I think its long over due

Would be dope if Oregon State could get these for a practice shoe.
