The enduring legacy of NBA legend Charles Barkley is intertwined with his iconic Nike sneaker line. The Nike Air Max 2 CB 94 stands tall, carrying the weight of history, style, and basketball culture. With recent releases like the Black White Purple and the Reverse Mocha garnering immense attention, 2024 promises even more excitement for sneaker enthusiasts. The anticipation builds with the return of the OG White Black Old Royal and the introduction of a reinvented classic, the Black Gym Red.
This iteration of the Black Gym Red colorway on the CB 94 adds a contemporary twist to its predecessor. This model proudly sports black tumbled leather overlays, shifting away from the traditional nubuck build. Contrasting this is a vibrant red base layer, perfectly complementing the white perforations and the stark Nike branding. As mentioned previously, a striking detail is the refreshed heel tab branding and Nike text, now presented in white instead of the original red. The shoe is completed with a clean midsole, housing the iconic red Air Max cushioning in the heel. This tooling is complemented further by a pristine white rubber outsole, a noticeable departure from the OG's black version.
The Nike Air Max 2 CB 94 Black Gym Red will release in Summer 2024 through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men’s sizes, the retail price is set at $170.
