Nike Is Bringing Back the Air Safari Sneaker In Its OG Colorway for the First Time in Six Years

Leaked images have already revealed that Nike Air Safari-inspired colorways are coming to a range of basketball and running sneakers later in July to coincide with the Paris Olympics. Now, it’s been confirmed that the actual source material will make its return in its OG colorway.

The Nike Air Safari “Black/Monarch” brings back the shoe’s original colorway from 1987. Tinker Hatfield designed the model and had the idea of bringing an animal print to a sneaker after seeing an ostrich skin couch in New York City.
