Jordan Brand Highlights Air Jordan 1’s Skateboarding History

Nike SB team rider, Theotis Beasley was initially spotted in a photo with fellow team member Paul Rodriguez wearing a unique pair of Air Jordan 1s.

This initially caught wave amongst the SB heads, who hypothesized if this would, in fact, be another Air Jordan and SB project.

Incorporating Lakers-esque color blocking with white leather underlays, while the photo of the two SB members shows that there may be a wear-away effect that fades from the Los Angeles tones to a Chicago inspired rendering.

I think this is a better pic than the up close I posted earlier. Let’s see how opinions change on these with this info ? : I’ve confirmed that there will be a @jumpman23 x @nikesb collab coming with multiple pairs, lows and highs, dropping starting in summer through the end of the year. This specific pair on @theotisbeasley feet will tear away from Lakers colors to Chicago’s. Thoughts on these now? #NikeSBorNothing #nikesb #nikedunk #nicekicks #sb #sneakers #nikedunks #dunksb #nikesbovereverything #Sbfiend #igsneakercommunity #sbsonly #sbnation #sbInsider #heatonfeet #kickgame #kicks0l0gy #supportyourlocal #kickstagram #instakicks #wdywt #Sbloyalty #sbnation #nike #stashedboxes #wearwhatyoulikenotwhatshyped #wsbdywt @nikesb @sneakernews @sneakerbardetroit @sneakerfreakermag @kicksonfire @nicekicks @complexsneakers
