Jackie Robinson honored with Nike Air Griffey Max 1 sneaker

Nike is paying homage to Jackie Robinson with a special iteration of Ken Griffey Jr.'s signature sneaker.

This version of the Air Griffey Max 1 replaces Griffey's No. 24 with Robinson's No. 42 on the ankle strap, and it features one of Robinson's famous quotes: "There's not an American in this country free until every one of us is free."

A release date for the shoe has yet to be announced, but it could be available in time for Jackie Robinson Day on April 15.
