One of Nike’s signature running shoes is getting a colorful but meaningful update. The Nike Air Tailwind 79 Be True Sneaker pays tribute to an LGBT pioneer.

This edition pays homage to the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots and Gay rights activist Gilbert Baker who designed the iconic rainbow flag. Pink accents live nicely on the upper paneling while a see through mesh gives the soft hue subtle visibility. Additionally the rainbow detailing can be found on the heel.

The Nike Air Tailwind 79 Be True Sneaker will be available starting June 8 at select Nike retailers.
