Who said skateboarding was still reserved for outsiders? London's most prolific brand in Europe is about to take a significant new step in its history. While the Palace x adidas partnership is coming to an end after several years of fruitful collaborations, it seems that Palace is taking a decisive turn by collaborating with another sportswear giant: Nike.
Far from being simply a streetwear brand, Palace Skateboards embodies an energetic culture, rooted in the boldness of skate, authenticity, and artistic innovation. Founded in 2009 by Lev Tanju, Palace quickly established itself as an undeniable force, a movement, a visual language. With its bold designs, unexpected collaborations, and rebellious spirit, the brand attracts, captivates, fascinates, and has made a name for itself. Starting in 2026, its eclectic designs and ability to capture the essence of skate culture could well align with the Swoosh.
What to expect?
The news of the alleged partnership was first reported by @Horhead_sales (Twitter), revealing that the collaborative product between the two entities should arrive by 2026. Early reports suggest that Palace and Nike will join forces to deliver a series of innovative items, fusing Palace's distinctive style with the Swoosh's technologies.
While Nike is renowned for its technological advances and performance innovations, its commitment to innovation and quality could find a natural echo in Palace's philosophy, which has never hesitated to push the boundaries of design and creativity. SB range? Air Max? Jordan? The Palace x Nike collaboration is expected to focus on iconic pairs from the Swoosh to create products that are both functional and aesthetically striking.
Although details remain to be confirmed for now, the two brands could well open a new path for creativity and performance-oriented products to redefine the standards of the skate world. What is certain is that this partnership could give rise to avant-garde creations that will have a lasting influence on the fashion and skate landscape. Stay tuned!
