Legendary shoe for the older sneaker fanatics… I remember going to the movies with my new pair of Air Trainer SC II. And we were all so impressed.. seeing them years later they are still as impressive as they were back then…in the eyes of a 12-year old… The original prototypes (on eBay) The Tinker Hatfield original drawings of the Air Mag. and the original “shoebox” for the Nike ...
