Nike’s Blue Ribbon SB Skate Sneaker Is Inspired by the Cortez

Nike SB is debuting an all-new skate model dubbed the Blue Ribbon SB, or the BRSB if you will, that is heavily influenced by the label’s classic Cortez silhouette albeit with some key modern updates.

The Nike BRSB debuts in a clean black and white color scheme throughout its mesh and suede construction. The former features on the mid panels and tongue, while the latter dresses the toothly eyestays and toe. Further elevating this skate option are the leather Swooshes and heels, along with a clean white midsole with a visibly embedded cushion.

Interested fans will be able to purchase the Nike BRSB when it releases in the upcoming weeks via Nike.com and select retailers. Keep it locked to our Sneaker Release Dates Calendar for updates.
