The Nike SB Air Max Ishod Black Gum Releases Summer 2024

Published March 28, 2024

Though many look to Nike SB for the iconic Nike SB Dunk Low, the brand produces some of the best performance skate silhouettes, with top skaters getting their signature models. One silhouette drumming up hype is Ishod Wair's second sneaker, the Nike SB Air Max Ishod, as its '90s hoop-inspired design and incorporation of modern tech make it a great sneaker for casual wear and shredding. While we've seen multiple colorways hit shelves and an upcoming collaboration with Verdy, the sneaker has appeared in a clean Black Gum combo.

This latest iteration of the Air Max Ishod embraces a classic yet versatile palette, utilizing various materials to achieve a multi-textured look. The upper composition of suede, leather, mesh, and canvas ensures durability and breathability, which is crucial for enduring the wear and tear of skateboarding. Black dominates the sneaker, creating a refined aesthetic easily paired with any outfit.

Distinctive details include Ishod Wair's signature branding, adding a personal touch that fans of the skater will appreciate. The design is further elevated by introducing a jewel Swoosh on the lateral side and a mesh-overlay embroidered Swoosh on the medial, blending heritage Nike cues with contemporary flair. A black vulcanized rubber midsole featuring a strategically placed Air Max unit in the heel offers unparalleled cushioning and impact protection. This look is paired with a timeless gum rubber outsole, enhancing grip and board feel.

The Nike SB Air Max Ishod Black Gum will release in Summer 2024 through Nike SB retailers and Nike online. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $110. Download the Sole Retriever mobile app for the latest on this release and more from the world of sneakers and skateboarding.
