For the true skaters and Nike SB collectors unmoved by hype, the return of Paul Rodriguez’s Nike SB P-Rod 1 has been one of the more exciting developments of the past few seasons. After re-emerging in a handful of colorways in 2025, the model is set to carry that momentum with more looks throughout 2026.

Here we have a formula long favored by skaters, pairing a black upper with classic gum brown soles. Suede remains the material of choice for skate shoes thanks to its comfort, easy break-in, and reliable flick for flip tricks. This is one of a few upcoming P-Rod 1 styles, joined by “Flax” and “Grey/Blue” colorways previewed by the man himself last year.

The Nike SB P-Rod 1 “Black/Gum” lands April 2026 via skate shops for $120. Check out official images below if you’re moved to cop.

In other skate shoe news, the Nike SB Air Force 1 continues to surface in new colorways.
