Go for Gold in the Nike Air Trainer SC “Pro Purple”
Published:July 08, 2026
The Nike Air Trainer SC is one of the most recognizable cross-training silhouettes ever created. And this latest "Pro Purple" edition adds to the silhouette’s history with rich materials, premium detailing, and celebratory touches into a release that feels fit for a special occasion.
Inspired by the fan-favorite “ATL” Nike Air Trainer SC from 2016, this new take honors the 30th anniversary of the Atlanta Olympics with a rich “Pro Purple” suede and leather upper. Crisp white underlays keep the layered design balanced, while “Metallic Gold” hardware throughout the lace system and midsole elevates the look.
Small details make this release stand apart. Embroidered accents on the tongue and heel add a celebratory feel, while the colorful Nike wreath logo at the back introduces a subtle pop of color that complements the otherwise regal palette. Underfoot, a translucent outsole features multicolor detailing that gives the shoe an unexpected twist without overpowering the classic design. Combined with the visible Air cushioning in the heel, the result is a sneaker that delivers both standout style and everyday comfort.
Whether you missed out on the 2016 version or not, the Nike Air Trainer SC "Pro Purple" is a must-have in the rotation. Its luxurious materials, bold color combination, and thoughtful details make it one of the season's most distinctive releases.
