Paul Rodriguez's Nike SB Legacy is Celebrated on the SB Dunk Low "What the P-Rod"
Paul Rodriguez is one of the most important — and tenured — figures in the history of Nike (NYSE:NKE -0.84%) ‘s Nike SB sub-label, so the Swoosh is nodding to his story with a new SB Dunk Low “What the P-Rod.” Drawing inspiration from a plethora of P-Rod sneakers that range from Rodriguez’s own signature line to his many SB Dunk collaborations, the “What The P-Rod” is a detailed trip down memory lane for any Rodriguez stan or SB fan.
Pieces of note include an elephant-printed mudguard and eyestays that salute 2005’s Air Jordan-inspired P-Rod 1 “J-Rod,” a toebox that nods to the P-Rod 1 “Stash” from 2006 and another toebox that pulls directly from the P-Rod 1 “Mexican Blanket.” There’s also quilted linings inspired by the P-Rod 2 plus a lace deubre and outsole borrowed from Rodriguez’s more recent SB Dunk High. A veritable laundry list of pieces from P-Rod’s other releases finish the look, making for a design that’s just as much retrospective book on Rodriguez and Nike’s partnership as it is colorful sneaker.
See all the details above, and expect a release at SB stockists like The Berrics Canteen later this year.

One of the makeups on the brand’s release calendar is the Nike Dunk Low “Sun Club” which has just surfaced onto our radar by way of early on-foot imagery.
Instead of the utilizing the traditional smooth leathers for the uppers of these kicks, the Swoosh design team switched gears and crafted them with canvas base layers and tumbled leather overlays.
