Nike Shox R4 Imperial Purple Celestine Blue — the sneaker that reinvented cushioning
Introduced in 2000, the Shox R4 was the first model in Nike's Shox line, a technology that replaced the classic air unit with visible polyurethane foam columns in the heel. The idea had been in development since the 1980s, when Bruce Kilgore himself (creator of the Air Force 1) experimented with mechanical cushioning systems. In Imperial Purple and Celestine Blue, this R4 brings back all the futuristic style that made it iconic.
Shox R4 — the 2000 design with the original 4 columns
The 'R' stands for running and the '4' for its four Shox columns, defining this silhouette: four hollow polyurethane foam pillars positioned between two TPU plates in the heel, which compress on impact and return energy as the foot lifts off. In Imperial Purple and Celestine Blue, the glossy synthetic upper with ventilation perforations faithfully reproduces the original launch look.
Materials and technology
- Upper: glossy synthetic leather with ventilation perforations for enhanced breathability.
- Interior: padded lining and an insole with additional support for everyday wear.
- Outsole: Shox technology with 4 polyurethane foam columns in the heel for cushioning and energy return.
