The Nike Air Bakin OG returns in its original Black and Varsity Red colorway, pairing a bold red and black upper with the chunky shape that made the retro basketball sneaker stand out. Those same colors also make the Air Bakin easy to coordinate with Nike Sportswear.
For a clean outfit, start with black apparel and let the Varsity Red sneakers provide most of the color. You can also bring more red into the look with University Red Nike Club clothing. Below are some matching Nike apparel options for putting together a complete Air Bakin OG outfit.
Nike Air Bakin OG “Varsity Red” Matching Apparel

Nike Sportswear Windrunner Men’s Lined Jacket
