As the Colorado Buffaloes prepare for a 2025 season with new starting quarterback Kaidon Salter, Deion Sanders has been making headlines for something other than football. With Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter in the NFL, it’s time to turn our focus towards the antics of “Prime Time” away from the game, including these four unreleased Nike Air Diamond Turf Proto 92 samples.
Gifted to Sanders for his birthday, the collection debuted during a team meeting and was later showcased in his office alongside Deion Sanders Jr. Each pair highlights a different chapter of Sanders’ style and legacy. The silhouettes include a classic black, white, and gold matching the team’s colors; a vibrant yellow suede; a clean white and red throwback nodding to his time with the San Francisco 49ers and their team color, including glossy patent leather overlays; and a loud purple and pink colorway that Sanders said would “look good on Cam’ron.”
The Nike Air Diamond Turf Proto 92 originally debuted in the early ’90s as a cross-training sneaker built for Sanders’ dual-sport dominance in the NFL and MLB. Known for its midfoot strap, layered paneling, and bold branding, the model became a staple in both sports and streetwear circles.
No official retail release or launch date has been confirmed from Nike for the prototypes, but expect more out of this collection as it renews nostalgia for the famed Air Diamond Turf Proto 92.
