Celebrating the shared legacy of Spelman and Morehouse University, connected by purpose, pride, and community.

Sisterhood has always been at the heart of Spelman College. It lives in the classroom, on the yard, and in the quiet moments where ambition meets encouragement. It’s the way women pour into one another, share wisdom, and build community that lasts well beyond graduation. That spirit is rooted in care, courage, and collective strength that continues to shape how Spelman women show up in the world today.
The Nike Air Max Yardrunners “Spelman” honors that legacy. With tones of blue and white that echo the college’s storied tradition, the design reflects the essence of elegance and resilience. It’s a celebration of sisterhood, of women who lead with purpose and carry the culture forward with grace. The “Spelman” edition will be available at JAIDE Atlanta and Charlotte, while the “Morehouse” edition, releasing exclusively at JAIDE Atlanta, complements that story.

At JAIDE, we see that same energy reflected in our community, women who balance strength and confidence, ambition and authenticity. The Yardrunners collection captures that harmony, reminding us that legacy is a living thing, carried by the women who continue to write it every day.

The Nike Air Max Yardrunners “Spelman” and “Morehouse” release Saturday, October 11 at 11 AM local time, available in-store at JAIDE Atlanta and Charlotte. This Homecoming season, we honor the sisterhood that defines Spelman and the women who lead with intention, together.
