Original Story: Streetwear titan Supreme has solidified its ability to successfully resurrect shoes after countless revivals of Nike models — from the Air Tailwind IV to the Air Bakin — have hit shelves. Today, the duo shared a preview of its latest work — bringing back the Courtposite in three co-branded colorways. Now, a preview of what’s next from the two brands has surfaced — a skate-ready take on the Air Darwin.

Introducing the Nike SB Air Darwin Low, the ’90s basketball shoe sees a reworked presentation that features a lower cut and skate-oriented specifications. The brief preview of the shoe reveals a heavy canvas upper in a light off-white with “Polar Blue” notes spread across the reverse leather Swooshes, eyelets, base of the tongue tag and the lateral Supreme-branded tag. Black joins in at the collar, heel tab and lining while also covering the entirety of the sole. Per usual, the sockliner sees “Supreme” text in white spread across a red base to wrap things up.

At the time of writing, neither Supreme nor Nike has shared any information surrounding their team-up on the new SB Air Darwin Low. Enjoy an early look at the shoe above and stay tuned for more info as a total of four colorways are expected to be releasing next year via Supreme and Nike at a price of $120 USD.
