Along with Ken Griffey Jr.’s heartfelt speech, one of the most memorable aspects of the legendary player’s recent Baseball Hall of Fame induction ceremony was his custom made suit. Griffey was styling like no Hall of Famer before him with a specially made outfit for the occasion, featuring “Hall of Fame Class Of 2016” text forming pinstripes down the suit and a golden tie complete with his Swingman logo stitched in. With a recent share on his Instagram account, we now learn that there was even more happening with his Hall of Fame outfit that day, as Griffey shows off his custom Nike dress shoes. Looking like any old pair of brown leather dress shoes from afar, you can see they actually feature Swooshes embossed on each toe and Nike logos on each insole. We assume these will remain exclusive to Griffey himself, so good luck for any of you hardcore fans hoping to score a pair.

Call it what you want, the Air Max Plus, the Nike Air Tuned Max, but the uniquely aggressive model has been holding down international markets with its fierce display of gradients and sleek design since the early 2000s. It’s still catching up in popularity stateside, and with that comes brand new constructions and lifestyle-themed collections like the freshly minted “Satin Pack”.

The Nike Air Max Plus has grown up and has since ditched the mesh construction and fire-like plastic overlays for a Satin construction complete with a larger Swoosh on the side panel. This monochromatic Crystal Blue references the original shape through embossed details and matching intricate stitching. The numerous visible air bubbles add a futuristic aesthetic to the off-white midsole while a classic gum bottom makes this colorway easy to wear outside the gym.
