After five years off the shelves, the Nike SB Air Trainer 1 is making its return in bold fashion.

Southern California’s Arts-Rec teams up with Nike Skateboarding for a fresh take on the classic silhouette. The Arts-Rec x Nike SB Air Trainer 1 revives retro design with an earthy color palette and Safari-style overlays. Instead of the traditional forefoot branding, this pair proudly displays “Arts” and “Rec” across each strap.

Rich textures like suede, leather, and pony hair give this Air Trainer 1 a premium look and feel. The deep burgundy, tan, and soft pink tones blend with cheetah-like prints for a unique aesthetic. The iconic midfoot strap and classic SB tooling ensure the sneaker holds up for skating and everyday wear.

This pair releases alongside the Arts-Rec x Nike SB Dunk Low, forming a cohesive duo rooted in Southern California culture. It brings vintage Nike vibes into a modern skate-forward design.

Arts-Rec Nike SB Air Trainer 1 Release Date

The Arts-Rec x Nike SB Air Trainer 1 will officially launch on July 18, 2025, through Arts-Rec and select skate shops. A SNKRS is set for July 22nd.

Collectors and skaters alike should keep this drop on their radar. It marks a stylish return for a cult favorite sneaker with a local twist.
