What happens when the world’s athletic footwear leader teams up with a brand so strongly associated with denim and its ties to American history that they’re in the baseball and apple pie pantheon? We already saw some Levi’s x Nike magic when the Air Jordan 1 ’23/501′ package released as the first Jordan Brand collaborative release back in 2008, and now, just like JB themselves, it looks like Levi Strauss & Co. will be offering a collaboration with Nike SB. Omar Salazar just tweeted an image of a black-tagged pair of Levis with a Swoosh where the model number would typically reside, so are we looking at another fresh cut of the impeccable 501, or perhaps an all new silhouette that really will be “The best jeans to sk8 in!” This also begs the question if we’ll end up seeing a Levi’s x Nike SB sneaker released, so be sure to check back with Sneaker News for updates, and let us know what you think of this new alliance.
