Ken Griffey Jr.'s first signature shoe — one of the most iconic baseball/sneaker crossover silhouettes of the 90s, and this is the Mariners-inspired Varsity Royal colorway. Nike is re-releasing this exact pair for Spring 2026, which puts the hype cycle in full swing right now.

Varsity Royal nubuck upper with white leather Swoosh side panels, matching royal midfoot Velcro strap with debossed 'NIKE' text, royal flat laces over a black neoprene inner sleeve. Griffey's '24' jersey number is embroidered on the lateral ankle strap tab with a Volt Swoosh accent, and there's a small Volt Swoosh on the medial heel. Volt Max Air unit visible in the heel and forefoot windows. Black rubber outsole with the signature tennis-ball graphic on the heel pivot pod and squared-grid forefoot tread.

Condition — Lightly Used: Royal nubuck upper clean throughout, white leather side panels and heel quarter clean with only very minor edge scuffing on the toe area. '24' strap tab and Velcro fully functional. Blue laces still bright. Volt Max Air windows crystal clear. Tennis-ball heel graphic crisp. Outsole shows only light everyday wear — grid tread pattern fully intact, tennis-ball pod still readable. Structure fully solid.

With original box.
