Nike SB
By Gabriel
Hey lions! I’m here to tell you about a brand and
skateboarding company called Nike SB. They make great shoes and nice shirts. Nike
SB sponsors a lot of skaters to skate for their company. Apart of the
Nike SB pros that skate for their company include Ishod Wair, Paul
Rodriguez ( P-Rod), Shane O’ Neil, Stefan Janoski, Erik Koston, and
many more. They also have Semi pros skate for them like Donavan Piscopo
and Kevin Bradley.
Nike SB was launched in March 2002 after having
previous fails of having skateboarding apart of Nike the third time was
the charm. When it first started they had four shoes called Mulder Dunk
SB, Forbes Dunk SB, Gino Dunk SB, and Supa Dunk SB. Later that year in
the fall the Supreme Dunk Low came out and it ended up being the most
classic Dunk of all time, they were inspired by Jordan 3 colorways.
Ever since then Nike SB took off I see a lot of skaters wearing them
some people don’t even skate but they wear them. The shoes are long
lasting because the grip on the skateboard can really mess up your
shoes so they make it hard to mess your shoes up.
Nike SB became very popular also by making videos of
their team skaters skating in the shoes. This reason is so skaters
would become more interested in their shoes , and it worked. It was
also easy since most of the skaters were already well known in the
skating work and kids and teens idolized them. People also wear them
just because they like them very much. I like the style , how they
feel, the material, and they last a very long time so it’s worth it.
Well thank you for reading my article hope you enjoyed it.
