Nike SB Zoom Air P-Rod Sample | Size 9.5

As one of the most celebrated Nike skate partners, Paul Rodriguez – or P-Rod – is one of the few Nike athletes with 10 signature sneaker styles. Throughout his time with Nike, Rodriguez’s line has featured several colorways inspired by his Mexican-American heritage. 

Offered in this lot is a 2005 sample of the Nike SB Zoom Air P-Rod. Dressed in a predominantly black leather upper, the pair features Serape-inspired detailing on the toe box, Swoosh, tongue tag, heel, and insoles. 

The Nike SB Dunk made its formal debut in 2002 when Nike officially reworked the famed Dunk basketball sneaker originally designed in the 1980s with upgrades suited for the skateboarding community. The man behind it, former Nike executive Sandy Bodecker, is credited with building one of Nike’s most beloved subdivisions in the early 2000s with the Nike SB line.

What sets Nike SB apart from other competitive brands is the unbridled creativity, collaborators, materials, and whimsical highly thematic designs that define a generation of sneakerheads. Nike has explored hundreds of concepts – often with a sense of humor – through its Nike Dunks. From designs that range from beer bottles to guitar cases, to horror films, jewelry, animals, arts and cities – the Dunks represent some of the most beloved and creative models for the brand.
