The Ohio State Buckeyes sit in the No. 11 spot in the FBS standings, and when you’re on the cusp of the top 10, your sneaker sponsor brings the heat. At Ohio, that means adding to the matching Vaporposite and Foamposite collection that’s been touching down at Nike schools across the country.
Vaporized 90s
The Nike Max 90 Vapor Ohio State is the first team-specific Max 90 Vapor we’ve seen this season, and thankfully for youth players across Ohio, the cleats will be dropping for the public just in time to join the high school season, too. In addition to the Max 90 Vapor, the PE collection features a classic Nike Air Max 90 Ohio State colorway, too, so you can match your off-field kicks to your spikes.
