Air Griffey Max 1… They’re back namsayin!!!

February 21st, 2009 | Category: Kicks, Namsayin

What a coincidence. The M’s just re-signed “Junior” and now Nike is going to retro the shoe that started the “Swingman” legacy. When Ken Griffey Jr. was in his prime he was an awesome fielder, had a canon arm, was a smooth base runner, and a swing so perfect it earned him his nickname “Swingman.” Back when he first signed his Nike contract “Junior” got his own signature shoes and they were some of the sickest looking kicks to be made for the Mariner.  Finally, after years of waiting, and major career accomplishments achieved, the Griffeys are coming back.
