Nike, the company you love to hate (and hate to love) with an epic billboard from 1988. That would make P-Rod about four-years old when this went up. Who would have thought that Nike, after so many failed attempts to break into the skating world, would have such a big thing going with Nike SB some twenty-years later? But like JT’s pop-tart, what goes up must come down. We’ll see how long Nike can keep it up (Vans is coming back strong to claim what was theirs from the beginning.) One thing is for sure, its been over twenty-years and no one has been able to design a better looking shoe than the forever-classic Jordan I.

i remember that ad. i had several pairs of jordan’s to skate in and chill in. i know a lot of people hate ‘em, but i still skate ‘em. i just saw the blazer colorway i designed, due out 1/09. Nike SB is O.K. with me!
