Welcome to THE GAME PLAN, a new section on DimeMag.com where we collaborate with CHAMPS SPORTS to bring our readers the best one-stop head-to-toe collections for ballplayers nationwide.
Next up: The latest collection to hit the Game Plan is the Nike Griffey spring collection. Ken Griffey Jr. revolutionized the game and brought in a whole new crowd of fans. Junior’s on-field swagger and smooth game attracted Nike to create an off-the-Diamond-inspired collection. Griffey’s signature swingman silhouette has been iconic since the mid 90’s and captures his one-of-a-kind backswing. This spring, Champs Sports is releasing a Seattle Mariners colorpack to pay homage to “The Kid’s” golden years and following it up with a new age Hybrid Neo/Turq/Volt Griffey to show that swingman still lives on.
The Seattle Pack is available 5/4 and Neo/Turq Pack available 5/11 at your local Champs Sports location.
Here’s the gear:
Shoes
Nike Griffey 1 – ‘Wht/Nyv/Blk/Volt’ – $149.99

If you took all the unique features of previous Griffey models and morphed them in one, you would get this Hybrid.
