Paul Rodriguez, Eric Koston, Theotis Beasley, Daniel LeBron, and other Nike SB riders were there to support their fellow teammate as were celebs and notables DJ Clark Kent, Gucci Mane, Lil’ Kim, and Stash, but the mood was more ‘catching up with old pals while throwing down some brews’ than anything else.
It’s been over a half a decade since P-Rod joined Nike SB and his fourth shoe might be the most rider-specific to date; the P-Rod IV features an extra-breathable mesh tongue (P-Rod’s got sweaty feet), a toe with better grip, and two-piece dual density sidewall, and a siped outsole with flex grooves, all of which that combines to fit P-Rod’s exact needs. The event space itself – Nike Stadium on Bowery to be exact – was transformed into P-Rod and Nike SB central, with a ton of wall displays and Nas’ poem lyrics printed on the wall, with a makeshift stage at the far corner for Gucci Mane’s performance.
