In 2013, Nike SB collaborated with LA skate shop Brooklyn Projects to create a limited edition sneaker inspired by the Hollywood “Walk of Fame.” The shoes featured pebbled black leather, red accents, and a gold swoosh, representing the stars on the sidewalk.
Due to legal issues, the original public release was canceled, and only 500 pairs were sold exclusively in-store for $169, with wristbands required for purchase. The release included special T-shirts for the first 150 customers. Although intended for a February launch to coincide with the Academy Awards, the release was delayed by several months. Ultimately, a limited QS version with only 600 pairs was made available, featuring different branding details.
