It's not uncommon for some of the most hardcore skate shoes to have a sweet side.

Take Nike SB's Air Max Ishod for example. Its "Hemp/Pinksicle" iteration is one of the more delicious schemes in the bunch, with Nike pairing sweet pink colors with creamy beiges and chocolate browns. Yum.

Underneath this mouthwatering color scheme, Ishod Wair's signature model offers its usual fixings designed for intense sessions. Indeed, fans can count on the flexible cupsole, strategically patterned outsoles for grip, and plenty of padding all around to protect from falls and slip-ups.

Of course, one of its most notable features, the Air in the soles, is preserved, once again bringing Nike's iconic cushioning to the stylish skate shoe model.

The Air Max Ishod "Hemp/Pinksicle" skate shoe is now available on the Nike's website for $115, in case any skaters or skate shoe fans were wondering.

Between that recent chocolate-flavored Nike SB collab and these "pinksicle" Air Max Ishods, the Air Max series is off to a delicious (and skate-able) start for 2026.
