For Black History Month, Nike SB adopts a new design strategy to honor Chuck Treece, an influential African American skater who graced the cover of Thrasher magazine in 1984. The shoe's color scheme not only reflects the cover image design but also pays homage to Treece's 80s rock band, McRad, featuring their logo on the tongue. Furthermore, the insoles display a graphic of Treece while he skates, highlighting his remarkable skills. An additional nod to his cover appearance is found in the "84" embellishment on the toe.
