Nike released the 'OG Collection' in July 2019 in anticipation of the premiere of Netflix's Stranger Things season 3. The collection highlights sneakers that would have been commonplace in 1985—the setting for the third season—and includes colors and details inspired by the 4th of July. This edition of the Nike Air Tailwind 79 begins with a mesh underlay, adding suede panels for a retro feel. Finishing touches include 'Stranger Things' branding at the tongue and '1985' emblazoned across the heels.
