The legendary athlete still cannot believe that Nike has paid tribute to his College Career with an Air Trainer in the form of OK State colors. Shoes has been sold out online/offline in less than 25 minutes after being released and it's really unbelievable.
Barry Sanders decided to donate all the proceeds to two different charities that means a lot to him. Based on reports the proceeds will be split 50-50 between boys and girls Club which is located in South Central Kansan and The Michigan Chapter of the Scleroderma Foundation.

"Designed to honor the "greatest season ever played," the latest Air Trainer 2 pays homage to legendary running back Barry Sanders’ award-winning season in 1988. The shoe features orange and black nubuck, as a nod to his alma mater’s rich heritage. Aesthetically, safari appropriately ties together the black and orange colorway finished off with a black reflective swoosh. The gridiron was his kingdom – and for years, the pride of Stillwater reigned supreme.""He dominated the opposition, running, juking and spinning past defenders to rack up the most rushing yards in a single season – 2,628 to be exact – and 39 touchdowns. His record-breaking stats and accolades are commemorated in the shoe’s sockliner. Sealing the shoe’s legendary status, Sanders’ collegiate jersey number – "21" – is embroidered in orange and black on the heel.""Step after step, yard after yard, and touchdown after touchdown, the legend known as Big Bad Barry made the stands rumble on gameday – and his influence still holds true today."
