Tuskegee University is a school with a rich legacy—founded by a renowned author, it's the only campus in the US designated as a National Historic Site. The Marching Crimson Pipers have been on the scene since 1890, and have had their iconic game day anthem sampled for a hit song. 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. SKU: IW7004-100
