Chuck’s signature shoe just got the golden treatment.
Today, Supreme has revealed the long-rumored upcoming collaboration with Nike. First surfaced a few months ago, Supreme collaborating with a CB 94 came as a surprise. The added wrinkle that Nike SB was involved in the project made the release that much more of a surprise.
Of course, Supreme’s roots lie in the world of skating, so the inclusion of Nike Skateboarding makes sense. After all, the vertical has spent the last several years transitioning basketball and running models like the Air Jordan 4 and the Air Max 95 into skate-ready sneakers.
Now, Charles Barkley’s second signature sneaker is getting some love. The beloved Nike Basketball silhouette has a big fan base, and Supreme is doing the shoe’s legacy justice.
Supreme’s rendition of the CB ’94 features a leather upper with perforated reflective mesh underlays as well as a rubber outsole with a visible heel airbag.
A debossed swoosh on the sidewall and TPU logos at the underheel add branding details, just as padded mesh and elastic tongue with molded logo eyelets and rubber tongue logo patch, and a co-branded footbed with mesh collar do through the rest of the sneaker.
Made exclusively for Supreme, the Air Max 2 CB ‘94 Low will be offered in three color ways. The collection will launch this Thursday, March 5th, at 11 AM EST via Supreme.
