The Nike SB Air Trainer 1 is making a long-awaited comeback in collaboration with Polar Skate Co. Eric Koston provided a first look at the new model, showing off the comprehensive performance silhouette’s eye-catching details. Sporting a main colorway of white, black and blue, the upper is constructed with premium leather along with nubuck overlays on the toe cap and heel.

Polar’s branding emblem can be found on the forefoot strap while the distinct Nike logos are placed on the panel, heel and tongue tag. The shoe rests on a white midsole and gum rubber outsole, tied together with stark black laces for adjustable fitting.

The Polar Skate Co. x Nike SB Air Trainer 1 drops June 10 on nike.com and select retailers. Stay tuned for pricing details.
