The Nike PG 1 'Ivory Snakeskin' Returns This Summer

One of the most popular colorways from Paul George's signature line is making its long-awaited return. Nike is bringing back the PG 1 'Ivory Snakeskin' for Summer 2026, giving fans another opportunity to own one of the standout releases from the debut silhouette that helped establish Paul George's signature sneaker legacy.

Since Nike concluded the PG signature series, appreciation for George's earlier models has only continued to grow. Among collectors and hoopers alike, the PG 1 remains one of the line's most celebrated designs thanks to its balanced mix of on-court performance and everyday versatility. After years of speculation surrounding a retro, Nike officially began reviving the silhouette in 2025, with the return of the 'Ivory Snakeskin' marking another milestone for the series.

The 2026 release stays faithful to the original 2017 design. An Ivory-colored upper provides a clean foundation, while cracked snakeskin-inspired overlays along the side panels add texture and premium character. Shaggy suede Swooshes further elevate the design, giving the basketball shoe a lifestyle appeal that transitions seamlessly beyond the hardwood.

Underfoot, a Gum Light Brown outsole completes the look, complementing the neutral upper while reinforcing the timeless aesthetic that made the original release so popular. Subtle Vivid Sky accents provide just enough contrast without distracting from the shoe's understated palette.

Although built as a performance basketball sneaker, the 'Ivory Snakeskin' has long been appreciated for its casual wearability. Its premium material mix and neutral color scheme have helped it remain one of the most sought-after colorways in the entire PG lineup.

For now, the biggest limitation is availability. Nike is expected to release the retro exclusively in Asia, with no broader global launch announced at this time. The Nike PG 1 'Ivory Snakeskin' is expected to release during Summer 2026 exclusively in Asia through select Nike Basketball retailers.
