But again, when was the last time Nike SB did something original AND good looking? Janoskis?

[close]

Do you expect a new silhouette that looks great and sells out every season or something?

I would second BA’s and add in the Lunar Gato’s, and my controversial take: the Koston 3

Lunar Gatos aren’t original though (I’m guessing) - but I agree they’re rad.  Still have an unworn pair for a special occasion

I figured they wouldn’t qualify per se but the original Lunar ones were so fucking good I felt it warranted mention

[Southernmost]

I feel like they could definitely retro a few colorways for Project BA’s, Prod 1 or 2’s and Koston 1’s. I’d buy a pair of each.

I think Proj BA defines cult hit.    Don’t think it sold very well.   Never really saw anyone wearing them.   

[Donkey Lips]

I saw that shoe everywhere. Seemed like it sold well but Brian mentioned Nike cut it because the lunar foam and materials were too expensive for the pricepoint past the first year.

Looking good. This is the first in-hand photo I've seen of them from what I recall

Nike 6.0 coming back in a big way!

I need to see them in a better picture, but for now I'm really underwhelmed... But again, when was the last time Nike SB did something original AND good looking? Janoskis?

The top angle looks like Elijah Berle's vans pro model.

That’s what they cost as a non-SB shoe.   

[Mean salto]

If you want a bit of a laugh just go on insta and read the comments on photos of the sb Jordans. (The less connected to skate accounts the better) Sb collectors that don't skate have to have an IQ in negative numbers.

These look really nice.
Didn’t Jordan from this era cost like $125-150? When gas was a dollar a gallon? When $50k was lower middle class.
All to say I think the price might be reasonable, in the scheme of things

You know these sneaker dorks will pay $400 and not skate em. I do want to try these out, but the toe cap looks narrower than the dunks.

new Lurpiv's looking more traditionally metallic silver

I’ll pay the $400 and skate em 🤷🏽‍♂️
The price is the same as in line pairs…I’ve rocked and skated the 4’s before and the toebox is 1.5 times taller than a dunk. FYI

It would have to last twelve months without using adhesives, for that price. The retail for ~$200 is reasonable for the model, as other people said, but we all know that other than people who work/skate for shops, or skate for Nike, the majority of people that get them aren’t going to set foot on a board. If I don’t get them, I don’t get them, and I’ll just buy that Mike Arnold Adidas shoe and those Quasi x Crockett Vans. Nike loves teasing people who actually want to wear and skate their shoes.

[devourthehours]

Instead of giving Michael Jordan a signature skate shoe, how about releasing another pro shoe for one of their current riders? Or even re-release some old pro models?

Amen..

The funniest thing to me about people losing their shit over these Jordan's is the fact that this model looks TERRIBLE on feet when skating. It looks like Nike made a version of the Muska Skytop

[sharkin]

what is unique about them aside from the SB label?

at least when Nike SB made other retro baskeball shoes (dunks, bruins, blazers) they upgraded them with zoom air insoles

because shoes skaters design look like shit

I'm really surprised people skate 4s. I had some forever ago that I never wore and thought "Maybe I'll just skate them.", but then I put them on and stood on my board. They felt way too thick. And I'm not a thin vulc guy at all.

They are thick.
I mean sometimes my feet hurt so bad I’ll try and skate air forces (shout-out Gino in roomies 411).


If I really cared about my feet I’d lose 10-20 pounds and strength train/stretch.
Or I could just list after some shoes I shouldn’t spend money on, that are from a time in my childhood when I didn’t have the money for said shoe
