Deion Sanders' Nike Air Diamond Turf 'Emerald' Release Date With OG Treatment
Deion Sanders' Nike Air Diamond Turf 'Emerald' Release Date With OG Treatment originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Diamond Turf 1 has multiple impressive colorways, but none deviate from the original design more beautifully than the Emerald. The primary original colorways all tell a slightly different story. 'The Falcons' is a measured chaos with competing panels and abrupt line changes, along with being half-white and half-black. The primarily black are almost completely black. The 'Must Be The Money,' expected to be released in September, are mostly white. However, the Diamond Turf 1 'Emerald' finds a happy medium between chaos and uniformity. Advertisement The colorway pushes back on the chaos of the OG but is unwilling to be completely anything as uniform as the 'Signing Day' and 'Ravens' colorways. The 'Emerald' has a predominantly a black base. A black upper, midsole and outsole. Nike saw an opportunity to color outside the lines on this one and to create something subtly unique within the Diamond Turf line. With a black base shoe, they make the entire forefoot strap pure white but doesn't stop there. The panel running under the forefoot strap starts low at the end of the toe box and rises gradually as you move towards the back of the shoe. This creates a slope that is also white gives the perception that the strap is part of a larger piece. The Deion Sanders gold motif continues with this model. It's similar to every other Diamond Turf, except for 'Love Letter to Connie.' The feature in the 'Emerald' that every Sneakerhead should take note of and likely rejoice over is the return to the original inner sock/tongue detailing. It's a detailed Nike innovation that is beloved by Sneakerheads on models throughout the 90s. In most cases, they are a base color. The Diamond Turf 1 'Emerald' asks the question, why does the inner sock have to be basic? The simplest way to describe it is shattered Emerald green glass over a black background. In 2009, Nike re-released the Emerald DT1 with a solid black inner sock. This was to the dismay of Sneakerheads everywhere. The confirmed images show the return of the inner sock detailing.
