Deion Sanders will have another strong year of releases in 2026, as his classic Nike Air Diamond Turf 2 returns. One of the pairs that will return to retailers is the “49ers” iteration, also known as “49ers Home.” The silhouette was originally released in 1994, and Deion wore the pair while playing for the San Francisco 49ers, during which he won his first Super Bowl. The last time we saw a retro was in 2012.
Fans of the Nike Air Diamond Turf 2 will be happy to know that the 2026 iteration of the 49ers pair will resemble the original release, including its branding and shape. As for the blocking, it will come dressed in Black, White, Metallic Gold, and Varsity Red. As for the build, the signature leather and nubuck runs throughout, with Metallic Gold mesh on the panels. The mid-foot strap will bear the iconic Swoosh logo. Unlike the original “Fire Red” pair, the OG 49ers feature “Nike Air Diamond Turf” across the tongues, which will be present on the 2026 release. Although not confirmed, we could see his baseball number 24 on the midsole.

Bottom Line
The Diamond Turf 2 is my favorite model from Deion, and I love the fact that we are getting two original colorways in 2026. The 49ers pair is my second-favorite, with the Fire Red as my first. However, I plan to buy both. I do have a feeling that both colorways will be difficult to obtain, since his second signature shoe hasn’t been released in a while.
