The Nike Air Diamond Turf Max ’96 “Falcons” is coming to Shoe Palace this November 15. You can find the Deion Sanders signature model on shoepalace.com and at Shoe Palace locations this November 15.
Falcons
The Nike Air Diamond Turf returned earlier this year. The latest version of the shoe honors Deion’s time with the Atlanta Falcons.
The Nike Air DT Max 96 was famously worn by Sanders. It was a beloved sneaker when it debuted. The rippled like design that was created allowed the shoes to stand out.
The mid foot strap and the football logo on tongue adds to the mystique and charm of the silhouette. Its visible Max Air Unit in the heel gives it an elevated level of cushion. This Falcons silhouette includes Deion’s number 21.
Retirement
Deion would retire from football in 2000. Prime Time’s charisma was evident in abundance throughout his playing career. He would take that ability to titillate and take it to the broadcast booth, becoming an NFL analyst.
He would return to the playing field in 2004 when he joined the Baltimore Ravens. He would play two seasons in Baltimore, and he was still effective. Baltimore would prove to be the last stop in his long and successful football career. He would then return to his role as NFL analyst, where he would thrive for years.
Coach Prime
Prime Time would make an interesting career choice when he became the Head Coach of Jackson State University in 2020. In 2022, after tremendous success at Jackson State University, he would move to the University of Colorado.
He has brought the program a level of notoriety that only a star of his status could. He has also caused controversy, due to Coach Prime being very much the same person as the player, Prime Time. He is still just as confident and flashy as he was on the football field and baseball diamond.
Deion Sanders
Deion Sanders has had an iconic career in sports. He has taken part in more areas of the sporting world than practically anyone else in history. He is currently back on top of
the sporting world, and his relationship with Nike has been renewed. The Nike Air DT Max 96 Falcons launches at Shoe Palace and on shoepalace.com on November 15.
