Undoubtedly one of the most sought-after shoes of all time, this Dunk marked the first collaboration between juggernauts Nike and Supreme. Nike SB was still very much an unknown in 2002 and this inaugural collaboration really set the wheels in motion for both Supreme and Nike SB over the ensuing decade. This “White Cement” pair is an homage to the iconic Jordan III and its legendary elephant print pattern, which was designed by Tinker Hatfield. The white leather is accented by a royal blue lining and a black Swoosh. Despite some understandable yellowing on the midsole, these are still in excellent condition for an 18-year-old shoe.

15 years before tie-dye patterns took over a sizable segment of fashion, San Francisco skate shop Huf and Nike SB teamed up for this unconventional Dunk High. Designed as an ode to San Francisco’s bohemian roots, this iteration is clad in black and orange, the colors of the San Francisco Giants, in a classic tie-dye pattern. The tie dye is offset by distressed leather paneling throughout, promoting a durable and worn in touch, an authentic look for all the skaters who ventured into Huf looking for the right kicks in 2004.

Dressed in the incomparable combo of white leather and brown suede, these relatively modest-looking SB Dunks bear a bit of a resemblance to the Travis Scott Jordan Is from 2019. Similar colorways aside, what really sets these Dunks apart from some of its counterparts is the attention to detail. Next to that premium white leather is the aforementioned supple brown suede, with a black Swoosh made of faux snakeskin. Some of the best Dunks from the era are outlandish in their presentation, but the “Trail End” stands out for its simplicity. A truly rare relic from a wild era of SBs.

One of the greatest ambassadors of the Jordan V throughout its illustrious history is none other than the Fresh Prince himself, Will Smith, specifically during his run as the star of The Fresh Prince of Bel Air in the early 1990s. Smith would don the Vs in episodes (including the pilot) and promotional shoots, and played a large role in the shoe’s acceptance within pop culture at large, much in the same way Spike Lee’s Do The Right Thing elevated the status of the Jordan IV outside of the basketball world. This “Bel Air” pair from 2013 plays on the fun neon color palettes of the day, featuring splashes of green, blue, purple and pink atop a cool grey base.

Supreme typically strays from conventional thinking when crafting sneaker collaborations with Nike. If it’s not a heritage shoe like a Blazer or Air Force 1, you often see it opt for non-traditional models like an Air Humara or Tailwind IV. That’s why it was pretty cool to see Supreme take on the then-new Flyknit Lunar 1 Model in 2013. Sporting the state-of-the-art flyknit technology now ubiquitous with running and basketball models, Supreme opted for this all-black rendering. There is a large tonal “Sup” branding along the sides as well as a tiny red Supreme logo on the tongue, adding that signature Supreme touch to one of Nike’s newest models at the time.

Before his death in 1983, Spanish artist Joan Miró crafted a large concrete sculpture titled Dona i Ocell (Woman and Bird), which is displayed prominently in his hometown of Barcelona and is used to welcome visitors. The 72-foot high structure is adorned in primary color tiles and serves as the inspiration for this Jordan VII which debuted right before the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. Aside from pulling a lot of the same colors from Miró’s sculpture, the sneaker holds other significance as well. The Jordan VII is the sneaker Jordan wore in the 1992 Olympics (his Olympic jersey number is on this sneaker’s heel tab), which, naturally, happened to take place in Barcelona.

In anticipation of 2019’s Missing Link animated film, Nike collaborated with stop-motion studio Laika on the Air Max 1 featured in this listing. Mr. Link, the film’s main character, served as the inspiration behind this quirky Air Max 1, and the film’s animator, Michael Berger, contributed to the design as well. The sneakers feature a hodgepodge of materials and patterns, including stripes, plaid and wool, with everything from brown, green and cream shades emanating throughout. A luxurious brown midsole and mismatched Swooshes provide the finishing touches.

Brooklyn artist Stash is a true pioneer within the sneaker community. He began his collaborative relationship with Nike in 2002 when he released a limited number (1,000) of his Air Classic BW, a part of Nike’s Artist Series. By 2006, with his popularity soaring, he was ready to release his famous “Blue Pack,” which consisted of an Air Max 95 and the Air Force 1 Low featured in this listing. This Air Force 1 released exclusively at NORT/Recon’s New York and San Francisco locations. The “Stash” features a lot of rich materials, including suede, leather and nylon, all of which contribute to this sneaker being one of the most durable Air Force 1s ever constructed. The contrast between the bright blue hues and muted soft grey really set this one off. Nearly a decade and a half later and this remains one of the most sought-after Air Force 1s from that era.

Decked in a military brown and tan camo print, the Air Max 90 featured in this listing was a United Kingdom-themed release from 2013. Constructed with Hyperfuse technology, a very popular material for the Air Max 90 back in 2013 (see our USA-themed Hyperfuse from a few weeks back), this completely camo Air Max features a Union Jack inside the sockliner. As you can see in the listing, the sneaker also comes complete with a matching camouflage shoebox. These sneakers received a limited release stateside, at the most exclusive Nike retailers.

Designed by Dutch artist Piet Parra, this is another in a long line of incredible Air Max 1s designed by him over the years. His sneakers have popped up time and time again on this column over the past year and for good reason, he designs shoes that are difficult to get your hands on. This “Amsterdam” Air Max 1 is no different. Inspired by Amsterdam’s infamous Red Light District, you can find bright red and blue tones throughout the sneaker’s leather, suede and mesh upper construction, as well as rich brown hues and a speckled midsole. Parra’s artwork adorns the sockliner while the Amsterdam city crest provides the finishing touch on the shoe’s heel. It’s another home run Air Max 1 from Parra.
