Nike Air Pegasus GX

August 13, 2009 / Lacrosse Playground /

Nike,with their re-release of the Air Pegasus GX, bring back fond memories from 1985. In 1985, John Hopkins defeated Syracuse by a score of 11-4 to win the NCAA Division I Men’s Lacrosse National Championship. A majority of the players that year were wearing the Nike Air Pegasus. The synthetic suede shoe with loud color combinations (Radiant Emerald/Plum and Varsity Purple/Volt) represent everything vintage about the eighties and everything hot about the new millennium.

Lacrosse Playground

In 2009, Adam O’Neill, Harry Alford and Thomas Alford launched Lacrosse Playground as the preeminent site for lacrosse gearheads. For years Lacrosse Playground provided lacrosse fans with tutorials and tips on how to string a lacrosse head, up-close looks at the gear the top players used and sneak peeks at equipment and uniforms before they were released. More than 10 years and millions of visits later, Lacrosse Playground has relaunched with a focus on storytelling. Our mission is to provide comprehensive coverage of the latest lacrosse news, share insights into the sports betting and fantasy lacrosse world and showcase the lifestyles and personalities of the sport of lacrosse through articles, videos and podcasts.

    Wasn’t even born yet but I’m glad NIKE brought these back into style.
