Description
Left Nike shoe in black and white with the “Air” logo on the heel. Though durability and hitting defined Tony Gwynn’s career, he also showcased speed, particularly in his prime. In 1987, he stole 56 bases, ranking fourth in Major League Baseball that season.
Over his 20 years in San Diego, Gwynn averaged 122 games per season, balancing consistency with a complete game that included occasional bursts of base-stealing prowess. This shoe reflects the equipment and style from an athlete who combined reliability with flashes of speed.

This information cannot be altered, backdated, or hacked and remains accessible at all times. Each item is uniquely fingerprinted using our patent-pending covert markings and tamper-resistant OVD holograms.
These security measures ensure The Realest™ can verify authenticity with absolute certainty, now and in the future, while detecting any attempts to alter or counterfeit items using undisclosed, cutting-edge security methods.
