Nike SB Jordan 1 to be released in 2012 (topics merged)

excuse me for being dumb, but what makes an sb an sb? how will this be any different to regular retros or the fat line?

will they just have a hell of a lot of padding making them look like having an allergic reaction to a bee sting?

Yea they already have one (actually 2 if you count the phats) it's called the Alpha 1's and they bricked out harder then most HipHop cd's....

This is a last desperate move by SB to stay relevant....talking about whoring out a line...it's 10 years so expect to see a TON of reissues..and just to really piss everyone off...White Black and Red..vintage look (similar to AJKO) SB logos but exclusives to Skateshop so expect price point north of $125 (to start) for some Jay 1's...SMDH...

I got my banneds...unless they drop Black and Blues in the same manner..I'm good on 1's (unless its on the bay for $20 to $30 bucks...lol)

   SBs usually have Zoom Air cushoning, stuffed/fat tongues, and nowadays modified, more durable outsole. Im just guessing here, but I imagine they will be similar in cut to the AJ1 Phats. 



If these look nice, I sincerely hope they will be sold at both NikeSB AND JB accounts. SB accounts are few and far between around my way

That sounds about right. Because of the history of people skating in Jordan 1 in the 80s, I can almost guarantee that itll be a OG colorway. I too can see it being Chicagos. Breds have been whored to death and Black/Blue has already released as a J-Pack low.

Id like to see 3,4,5, and 6. They all have pretty flat bottoms. 6s might be a stretch but I think they would work out great as far as practicality. Cant see it ever happening tho.

Its a Jordan 1 because that's what alot of skaters wore in the 80s because of the high cut ankle protection and flat bottoms. Its part of the reason why Nike SB chose the Nike Dunk as their flagship model due to the similarities of the Jordan 1.
