The upcoming Nike Sportswear Safari pack is going to hit home with classic sneakerheads. The latest collection to come to the Game Plan was originally inspired 25 years ago by a deluxe ostrich leather couch. Legendary sneaker designer Tinker Hatfield spotted it in a New York furniture store. Once it dropped on the Nike Air Trainer 1 in 1987, the rest is history. Thankfully for the younger generation, Champs Sports is bringing it back on September 7 as part of an entire collection centering around the Safari Griffey 1, Nike Veer and Griffery 360 Swingman (which will be limited). Use the store locator to find the hook-up near you.
