The Nike Shox R4 has been a mainstay of select closets across the globe for decades, but the silhouette has enjoyed the spotlight differently since Kendrick Lamar wore a pair at the Pop Out last June.
The Nike Shox R4 has been a mainstay of select closets across the globe for decades, but the silhouette has enjoyed the spotlight differently since Kendrick Lamar wore a pair at the Pop Out last June.
The Swoosh hadn't released the pair he wore on stage in several years, suggesting the Los Angeles-native either had the shoes in the stash or went to the secondary market to cop his size. In any case, his co-sign of the retro basketball model has coincided with a slew of reissues and special makeups by the Swoosh. The Oregon-based company has intentionally marketed the piston-assisted model to women, which will soon be able to enjoy a new 'Black' style.
Unlike past pitch-dark iterations of the Shox R4, the newly-surfaced option introduces an ornate fabric around the mudguards. Floral-reminiscent patterns found along the profiles cement the model is a lifestyle staple, and hints at a possible larger collection by Nike Sportswear featuring the same detailing.
This pair is available now on Nike.com so make sure to grab your pair before it is are gone.
