Released in 1989, the Air Jordan 4 took flight with Tinker Hatfield’s design chops and Sandy Bodecker’s help at the helm. Introducing new materials to the courts and evolved tech for breathability, the AJ4 continued the franchise’s cutting design and luxury-influenced aesthetics. Like the man himself, the run remained flawless and the Air Jordan 4 instantly became an icon. Beloved by many for its undeniable style and comfort, the original Air Jordan 4’s design became a perpetual “what if” for skateboarders looking for a performance shoe that stepped up to the progression of a revolutionary era. In 2023, the circle is complete.
Featuring Nicole Hause, Dashawn Jordan, Oski Rozenberg, Caleb Barnett, Antonio Durao, and Eric Koston.
The Nike SB Air Jordan 4 drops March 17 in select skate shops and March 21 in SNKRS.
A 20 year story in the making, Nike SB and ebay paid tribute to the patriarch of Nike Skateboarding, Sandy Bodecker, with the launch of 10 Charity Dunk Lows benefitting the Bodecker Foundation. Each Special edition box came complete with 1 pair of the Tribute Dunk, an homage to the original Charity Dunk, 1 pair of the 2022 release eBay Dunk, a commemorative saw, and commemorative plaque.
Plus, YOU CAN SKATE THE BOX! Each of these super custom/commemorative skateable shoe boxes were auctioned off on eBay with 100% of the proceeds going towards the Bodecker Foundation, which fund a variety of programs aimed to empower creative youth to imagine and achieve their artistic, educational, and professional dreams.
Through the auction of these boxes, they were able to raise a total of $355,000!

2022. What a year. From Ishod’s first signature shoe to partnerships with incredible community organizers and advocates like Skate Like a Girl and froSkate to Nyjah’s mind-melting, three-song part, 2022 tapped team riders and collaborators to celebrate 20 Years of Nike SB. Here’s the best of year. See you in ’23.
Nike SB’s second Be True Dunk came in hot and colorful with some unique material choices so CCS thought it would be a good time to put them to the 100 test. They tapped their friend Jerrod La Rue who has impeccable style and phenomenal pop to do 100 heelflips in them at Frogtown park in L.A.
While Nike celebrated a half century, they threw their own 20-year party. Let’s rewind to 2002 to where it all began, for a second time.
After many unsuccessful forays into skateboarding, Nike tapped a visionary by the name of Sandy Bodecker to lead a new charge. Fresh off his success integrating Nike into an equally challenging world of global football, Sandy quickly had Nike heading in the right direction with skateboarding, too.
It started with four of the most stylish dudes to ever ride a skateboard and, as they say, the rest is history. Head to NikeSB.com see how they navigated the last two decades and get a glimpse of where we’re going.
Nyjah sends it like few other can, attacking the streets with determination that can be summed up in two words: Need That.
