Andrew Rizzo Nike SB can basically be broken down into two parts. On one hand you have the “hype” department consisting mainly of SB Dunk collabs and standout in-house releases (like the upcoming Sonics Dunk), while on the other you have no-frills, skateshop-exclusive “Orange Label” shoes that are wholly intended to reach those who actually skate. As we continue to uncover the Orange Label series for Spring 2025, we’re learning that the SB Vertebrae will be among the trio of included models.
Truth be told, you’re probably only aware of the Vertebrae if you’re a skater to begin with. While a plethora of colorways have been released online since the model’s early 2024 debut, most fly under the radar and eventually go on sale. At skateshops, however, the model can be found front and center on window displays.
This Orange Label edition features a “University Blue” upper atop gum soles, aligning with an SB Dunk Low of the same skateshop-exclusive distinction. Orange Label shoes utilize better materials than their GR counterparts and come in batches of three, but it remains to be seen which other model will round out the “University Blue” series.
In any case, the SB Vertebrae “University Blue” is expected to start arriving at skate shops during the Spring 2025 shopping season. Keep up with your local skateshop on Instagram to learn if and when pairs come available.
