Blast from the Past: The Nike Shox R4 is Making a Comeback

Remember the iconic Nike Shox R4? This futuristic sneaker, known for its distinctive shock-absorbing technology, is making a long-awaited return to the market. After a 5-year hiatus, Nike is bringing back the original colorway of this beloved silhouette, set to release on December 3rd, 2024.


The Nike Shox R4 first debuted in the early 2000s, capturing the attention of basketball fans and sneakerheads alike. Vince Carter, the high-flying NBA star, famously sported this model during his prime, solidifying its place in sneaker history.


Now, over two decades later, Nike is tapping into the nostalgia factor by reintroducing the Shox R4 in its classic black, metallic silver, and Max Orange colorway. This tri-tone split design perfectly showcases the model's signature Shox technology, with the fiery red accents drawing the eye to the cylindrical propulsion units under the heel.



Priced at $150, the Nike Shox R4 "OG" is set to hit the shelves on December 3rd, 2024. Sneakerheads can look forward to securing their pair through the SNKRS app or select Nike retailers. For those who missed out on the previous retro release in 2018/2019, this is your chance to add a piece of sneaker history to your collection.


Whether you're a longtime Shox enthusiast or a newcomer to the silhouette, the return of the Nike Shox R4 is sure to generate excitement among the sneaker community. Mark your calendars and get ready to experience the iconic cushioning technology that made this model a standout in the early 2000s.
