The Nike SB P-Rod 1 "Light British Tan" Releases October 2026

Nike SB is bringing back the Paul Rodriguez Zoom Air Low with a "Light British Tan" colorway that leans into the wheat aesthetic Paul Rodriguez has carried since early in his career. The connection runs deeper than just a color choice: P-Rod has openly cited Tom Penny as an influence, and Penny famously wore an all-wheat éS Accel during one of the most imitated stretches in skating. When Rodriguez's first Nike SB signature shoe launched, a brown colorway was a natural fit, and this retro keeps that same idea going with an even more tonal approach.

Soft brown suede covers most of the upper and flows directly onto the midsole, keeping the palette consistent from top to bottom. Mesh on the Swoosh, tongue, and sockliner stays within the same warm color range rather than breaking the tone. The heel introduces a subtle repeating pattern to add some texture to the otherwise uniform build, and a visible Zoom Air unit in the forefoot provides the one clear contrast point in the design.
