Nike Air Trainer III "Optimus Prime"


It’s been several months since the sample pics of the ”Optimus Prime” Air Trainer III were revealed. Originally it was said they would release in July around the Transformers movie release date. Well July went by and the shoes didn’t release. In August we found out Nike would not only release the Optimus Prime Trainer III, but an Trainer Huarache, and Air Max 90 Boot would also drop. The Transformers Pack was suppose to hit select Nike accounts August 9th, but the month flew by with no sign of the pack. Shortly after that we posted pics of the Transformers AM90 Boot, and we had reason to believe the pack would release soon.
Now August and September has passed, and still no Transformers Pack. We don’t have much info, but what was told to us is the pack is set to release sometime in Fall 2007. As you may recall from the last update the Autobot logo has been removed. Rumors were floating around that Nike removed the 3M reflective material, and that was false. However there is no confirmed release date, and it’s quite possible the pack may not release until early 2008. Nonetheless the pack is not scrapped according to the info that was given to us. Stay tuned as we continue to keep updated on the mystery Transformers Pack.
In the meantime I would like to offer you the first up close and personal look at the “Optimus Prime” Trainer III. Big thanks to Elvis Killed Kennedy for sending us the detailed pics. (TSG)
