Nike SB Zoom P-Rod III Takashi 2

Nike SB Zoom P. Rod III

This nearly all-black Nike SB Zoom P. Rod III is slated to release in January of 2010. The Takashi colorway sports black nubuck covering the entire upper except for the Nike swoosh. The swoosh is comprised of a silver pebbled leather. The midsole and outsole mimic the upper with a black base and silver blocking.

Check the flip for a picture of the sole. What are your thoughts on this first few colorways you have seen on the SB Zoom PRod III?

Nike SB Classic High Black/White

Nike SB Classic High Black/White  

Nike SB will roll out these high top Classics in December, but we’ve got a look at them now. Using a tried-and-true white, black and red colorway, these use dark suede to provide a base for the white leather Swoosh to jump off. Red is used on the tongue and tongue label, as well as parts of the sole stitches. Nylon is also used for the tongue construction itself.

We’ve seen a lot of simple colorways from the SB camp lately, including this Zoom Air Harbor in grey and black, which looks to be a low-top cousin of the pair we’re seeing now.

Nike SB Stefan Janoski Blue

Nike SB Stefan Janoski Blue

Stefan Janoski is back at it again, leaking yet another solid colorway of his signature Nike SB. This is one channels a little Elvis, as it is completely draped in blue suede.

Small perforations cover the upper-most portion of these, while solid suede is used for the toe portion. A white vulcanized sole is back, with a black pinstripe wrapping around it. Black is used again for the contrast stitching around the toe, for the liner and for the eyelets. A white Swoosh matches up with the leather squared laces. These aren’t as subtle as the obsidian blue pair we saw recently, but they also aren’t as wild as the “Peacocks” Stefan gave us a sneak peek of recently. Where do these royal blue suede SBs rank?

 Skate Mental x Nike SB Dunk High Premium

Nike’s SB line of Dunks looks to be doing big things lately, as fans who once doubted the lineup have started to trust their favorite brand again, thanks to releases like the “Bloody Gums” and RESN “Gucci.” Next up are these Highs, scheduled for a late-November/early-December release.

Having paired up with Skate Mental for this pair, which uses brown suede to dress up the majority of the upper, while a white toe cap is used, matching the midsole. Breaking up the subtle colors is light blue, which is found on the Swoosh, around the tongue and for the liner..

Where do these rank among recent SB releases? Head to the comments section and let us know.

Nike SB Stefan Janoski “Vacahyde”

Nike SB Stefan Janoski "Vacahyde"

We almost made it a whole week without a Stefan Janoski Twitter sneak peek! Lovers of the Savage Beast will love this one though, which has been dubbed the “Vacahyde” by the man himself. For our non-Spanish speakers, “Vaca” means cow when translated to English.

This may be our least-revealing peek yet, but from the looks of it, the brown leather laces we’ve seen before are back again. The vulcanized sole for these Nike SBs is white again, with a matching tan pinstripe around the top. The hyde material covering the uppers uses a darker shade than the AF1s mentioned above, and is more brown than orange, also.

Hit the comments section and weigh in on these.

Nike SB Zoom Air Harbor

Nike SB Zoom Air Harbor

We see a lot of black and grey colorways dubbed “Raiders,” but we’ll refrain on this pair of Zoom Air Harbors, as their clean looks make them a “win,” and we know how rare it is lately that Oakland and winning are associated.

Team association aside, the greyscale color blocking of these often overlooked Nike SBs provides a nice look for the cooler weather, while keeping the white Swoosh and sole to keep the classic look. The entirety of the upper is suede, using black for the toe and heel caps. The mid-panel and tongue use grey, though the latter is mad with mesh for breathability. The dark toe cap should help with wear for those who will actually skate these.

And while we may have made a joke at the Raider Nation above, it’s all in good fun. The most loyal fanbase in the land is sure to appreciate these, as they don silver in black no matter their team’s situation, and that’s something we can all respect. The real question is, do you respect these sneaks enough to grab a pair?

Nike SB Dunk Low "Un-Hemp" Available Now

It was almost a week ago that we hit you with detailed photos of the “Un-Hemp” Dunk, and the skinny tongue vs. fat tongue debate raged on. For the most part though, the reception was warm and most of you marked them as a sign that SB is back on track, regardless of which tongue it’s bringing.

If you were one of the many who added these to your list of Holiday must-haves, you’ll be happy to know that thanks to Daily Drop, we now know these are available online and stateside. These may not be the “Chirping Bird” SBs, but they are a nice addition to most any collection, if only for the color and materials selections.
