Jordan shoes and colourways have been referenced by shoe companies for years. It’s surprising it has taken this long for Nike SB to run an official release.

Jordan silhouettes certainly inspired some of Koston’s most memorable éS releases back in the day making Nike SB the perfect fit in later years.
