This will be the second time he is collaborating with Air , but the first time as its athlete. Born and raised in Queens, New York, Sylvester hasn’t limited himself to becoming a BMX athlete. 

He has transcended the sport and launched collaborations with fashion houses and car companies, including Mercedes.

Nigel Sylvester Net Worth

Nigel Sylvester’s net worth is supposedly $2 million, making him one of the highest-earning BMX athletes of the current generation. 

Unlike other BMX athletes, Nigel Sylvester hasn’t made money from competitions. When asked the reason behind it, Sylvester said he enjoyed making content rather than competing.

His riding style was called street riding, which wouldn’t be seen in competitions. 

The highly talented individual soon caught the eyes of the people on the internet, which led him to collaborate with various brands.

A few brands the BMX athlete has collaborated with include Nike, DFNS, XSET, Buzzfeed, and Ethika.

The 34-year-old has broken the barrier for several BMX athletes with high-end collaborations. In 2026, Nigel was one of the faces of the company Hyperice. 

Hyperice is the industry leader in technological gadgets used for percussion, vibration, dynamic air compression, and thermal technology.

In 2026, he announced his collaboration with Specialized! and was featured in a Coach 2026 Winter Outerwear Campaign ad. 

One of the other unique points about Sylvester and his BMX career is that he has been able to include fashion in it. In 2019, he signed with DNA Model Management taking the step into fashion. 

In an interview with CFDA, Nigel said Deion Sanders’ quote, “If you look good, you feel good, if you feel good, you play good, if you play good, they pay good,” made him want to venture into the fashion industry.

Though Nigel had been collaborating with Jordan since 2018, it was only in 2026 he was added to the permanent roster of star athletes.
