You know something’s really happening when key people start to post about it, and we can’t help but feel our excitement building after Eric Koston and P-Rod teased closer looks of the Nike SB x Air Jordan 4 “Black Cat”.<\/p>\n

Circulating in the rumor mill as early as May this year was the return of Nike SB x Jordan, who first made their partnership public in 2014 through the release of Nike SB’s Lance Mountain x Air Jordan 1<\/a>. It was an exciting collaborative effort that saw the Swoosh’s skateboarding foray mingle with its legacy in the basketball court. Besides that, AJ1s also have a historically carved position in skateboard culture. Many early skaters who preferred high-top support donned the basketball silhouette for their cruises. AJ1’s well-advertised desire to breakaway from traditional hoop models also found resonance with the rebellious skate crowd, allowing the Jumpman’s first iteration to have a home outside of the polished courts.<\/p>\n

Even years later, Jordans are still a keen choice for the skateboarding crowd. To have them officially release a collaborative pair in honor of this relationship is always an exciting affair, especially when they come in a utilitarian “Black Cat” look.<\/p>\n

Through samples and teased images from the Nike Skateboarding veteran crew, the forthcoming pair will come in a suede construction. The black look will come with updated cushioning designed for ramp performance, but its look up top remains distinctively a Jordan 4. Its simple design allows its performance capabilities to be the forefront of its appeal, which is perhaps the biggest show of confidence from the Swoosh of its in-line models.<\/p>\n

Though not much is known outside of a potential March 2023 release, we’ll be sure to keep you updated. In the meantime, check out the leaked images in the slider above.<\/p>\n

In other anticipated collaborations, Hiroshi Fujiwara has teased another Fragment x Travis Scott Jordan<\/a>.<\/p>\n
