The name says it all—North Carolina A&T's Blue And Gold Marching Machine is a powerhouse through and through. The HBCU that produced astronauts and civil rights activists is also home to the most recognized marching band in North Carolina. Intricate drills, surgical musical precision and the signature "Cold Steel" drumline cements BGMM as a top contender in the field.
Nike celebrates the legacy of HBCUs and their longstanding impact on the marching band world with this collection of AIr Max 97s. Taking inspiration from band uniforms, it's layered in school colors with school branding at the heel and tongue. A matching whistle finishes the design, an ode to the drum majors who cut through the noise and command the crowd.

Heritage
Remember the revolution. 1987 saw the birth of the Air Max lineage, showcasing visible Air for the first time. What began as an experiment in cushioning soon evolved into an icon on the track and the streets. Over the years, it's been reimagined and retooled, but the heritage always remains.
