ERIC ARTEAGA TAKES THE J BALVIN X AIR JORDAN 1 RETRO HIGH OG FOR A SPIN
While we aren’t exactly fans of reggaeton music, we recognize the popularity of that genre, and of musicians like J Balvin. A lot of folks are probably excited for the new collab between Nike and Balvin, the J Balvin x Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG, simply because they like his music. Personally, we just dig the way the shoes look, and we’re excited for the rainbow sneakers, which hit stores today (Tuesday). However, we know what you’re wondering: How do they look on a board? Well fortunately Eric Arteaga has the answer for that.
The young, up-and-coming skater had an early pair of the show and decided to take to the streets of Los Angeles for a skate session in the Balvins (this is a way easier way to describe them then typing the full name out every time). In addition to wearing those shoes, Arteaga is also showing off a piece from his own soon-to-launch Teenage Punx brand. You can watch the video, and see the shoes, on Arteaga’s Instagram. Enjoy the skating, and enjoy the shoes.
