Wonderful news: Nike are bringing back the Air Zoom Turf Jet 97 – with a catch. This edition celebrates legendary NFL Hall of Famer Barry Sanders, who spent a lot of time in these shoes.

Presented in Detroit Lions livery, the white leather and blue accent combo is period correct, with custom ‘Lions’ and ‘20’ appearing on the midfoot straps. This is reminiscent of Player Exclusive editions in past years.

The catch is Nike will only release 2053 pairs – same as the highest number of yards gained by Sanders during the 1997 season. The Detroit Lions shop has released 250 units, and Nike’s webstore will have the rest on November 28.
