Here’s your first look at the complete Nike SB Black History Month 2013 collection. Each of these colorways was conceived by a successful African-American skater, ranging from the first black rider to cover Thrasher to a 21 year-old relative newcomer. In order of most experienced, highest cut and most colorful to youngest, lowest and most subdued, we have Chuck Treese’s ‘McRad’ Nike SB Dunk High, Theotis Beasley’s Dunk Low SB and Ishod Ware’s Zoom Bruin SB. They’ve all been “Sent from the future in a cardboard box” and are depicted further below; let us know which you like best and look for yours at select shops.

Nike Skateboarding extends their first ever Black History Month pack with the first vulcanized sole of the set. They’re also the first non-Dunk model we’ve seen from SB’s BHM 2013, the Nike SB Bruin Black History Month Quickstrike in black suede with a black croc Swoosh and golden branding. Just as the ‘BHM’ Dunk Low SB was designed by Nike rider Theotis Beasley, young pro Ishod Wair contributed this design, so have a closer look below, then act fast to get yours at select shops including Liverpool’s Lost Art.

Nike SB is in the middle of a transition. So much so, that retailers that carry their sneakers are now receiving shipments of familiar silhouettes that’ve been stripped of their ‘SB’ branding. This month’s Nike SB Zoom Eric Koston in white/gum and Stefan Janoski signatures in both heights signal wider distribution to come while Zoom Bruin and Dunk Mid both in white and soft neutrals still come with the same tags we’ve come to expect. Click through to see each one detailed individually and let us know which you’re looking to cop from Nike SB stockists like DQM.

The iconic Bruin basketball silhouette has been co-opted by Nike Sportswear, but let’s not forget which Swoosh division initially resurrected this 1972 classic. Its timeless lines have aged well in forty years of service, but we’re still waiting for a ruby anniversary colorway, as this new Nike SB Zoom Bruin goes in the opposite direction, opting for a nearly ‘blank’ appearance where a grey leather Swoosh tops Swan suede–exactly the kind of thing you need to round out your summertime sneaker rotation. The SB-exclusive Zoom Air-embedded insoles make these an extra comfy ride with super boardfeel thanks to a traditional vulc sole, and they’re available now at a store whose name describes their own status within the Mitten: Premier.

Nike Sportswear has a new model called the Gyle on the way that offers a nod to its classic styling, but we haven’t seen a new Bruin lowtop from the Swoosh skateboarding division in a couple of months. That changes with this new Nike SB Zoom Bruin in Neutral Olive and Mint, a model whose two main colors are both fairly neutral and happen to balance each other out quite nicely, yet have to this point been rarely paired despite the major brands’ recent attention to wardrobe friendly designs like these. And that’s exactly what the Zoom-cushioned Bruin from Nike SB is all about: combining classic style with a modern fastidious approach; find yours at select retailers like Premier.

Starbucks has been pushing their new Skinny Mocha of late, and while the new Nike SB release pictured above doesn’t carry any direct coffee influence, it does indeed represent a slimmed down take on a classic SB style. This new Nike SB Zoom Bruin has an undeniable ‘Mocha’ look about it, a lighter-on-darker brown blocking pattern that worked so well on a couple of mid-’00s Dunk Low SBs. They’re more like the ‘Mocha II/Tweed’ for their use of a suede upper, but lean back to the 2004 original by adding a dark foxing band that resembles the Dunk’s outsole. These might not make for the kind of obvious recognition as the ‘Tiffany’ colorway, but it’s quite the versatile release and available now at CNCPTS.

It’s not even Christmas yet (we know that because the Air Jordan XI Retro ‘Concord’ is still awaiting its early morning mass mobs lineups), and already select Nike SB retailers are starting to get their January 2012 footwear in stock. Let’s start with a Nike SB Dunk Low in a bold mix of navy blue, black and gold whose basketball-like pebbled underlay makes these even more of a reminder of Michigan’s Nike days. Coming up next is something you might expect more from Wisconsin, a Golden Hops suede-backed Dunk Mid Pro SB whose black leather overlay that looks so supple they could be a Premium. The Stefan Janoski makes an unprecedented offering with black and Anthracite pairs releasing in both the lowtop and Mid silhouettes, a simple black suede design echoed by the ’SB Chronicles’ Team Edition SE we’ve shown you a couple times this week. Rounding out the set are a ‘Tiffany’ Zoom Bruin SB and the Omar Salazar LR in navy and white, which means this is the first month in a while without a P-Rod signature model. We know for a fact there are more models on the way and we’ll be showing a couple of Quickstrikes a bit later this morning, so click through for more of this set and meet all your Swoosh skateboarding needs with Premier.

When the Nike SB Zoom Bruin first joined the Swoosh skateboarding family by way of the collaboration with Supreme, it looked like they might take the place of the low cut Blazer in the monthly rotation. But that has been disproven with both the original and cupsole Blazer Low SB releasing in new colorways somewhat sporadically, so now the Bruin rides alongside the model some may not realize is one year its junior. And now we have a shift for the Bruin SB, that, unlike the Blazer, is unlikely to be the type of thing that you see alternating from month to month. Instead of a different kind of sole issued at random, the new Zoom Bruin SB sees the 1972-born toecap removed in favor of a smoother look; do you like the cleaner silhouette or should SB have stuck with the classic design? Decide for yourself after looking more closely at this white suede pair slated for next June and stick with Sneaker News for updates on these and all Nike SB release dates. via N-SB
