Big Sneaker Release: On April 25, 2024, the highly anticipated Nike Air Diamond Turf Max 96 Prime in the “Varsity Maize” colorway will be officially released. This drop occurs immediately before the Black and Gold Spring Game in Boulder, providing supporters with an extra-special treat.
Release Date: A Change in Plans
Nike intended to release the unique shoes that Deion Sanders had created at the start of summer.
However, Nike decided to issue the entire collection the following month after testing the public’s approval with a limited run during the Super Bowl weekend.
Fans who have been following Coach Prime’s exploits in Colorado will be delighted to hear this.

The Story Behind the Sneakers
When it became known that CU athletes would be wearing shoes modeled after Sanders’ Nike Air Diamond Turf 3, there was a commotion before the 2023 season.
The media agencies’ confirmation of Deion “Bucky” Sanders Jr.’s official announcement set the stage.
Subsequently, Coach Prime himself announced that the Diamond Turf 3 would return in its original “Varsity Maize” colorway in 2024.
