Nike SB January 2008

First batch of Nike SB's have just arrived. So fresh they're still in cardboard boxes awaiting price tags. As always expect to see them online and instore very shortly.

First up is the P-Rod 2 in White/Black coming in at £64.95.


Next up is this Premium Dunk Low based around a Gibson guitar case and will also set you back £64.95.



Back in 2005 one of my favourite colourways in the Dunk SB was released and this is the Zoom Tre in the very same colours. Based on the Argentinian football team Boca Juniors, £69.95 for these fellas.


Apparently this colourway in the Blazer SB is inspired by the daddy of all truck companies. £54.95.


Nice stealth colourway in the Abington, personal favourite and currently on my feet. £54.95.

How's this for a start to 2008? Yes, you read correctly. Sometime this month Edinburgh will have an indoor skatepark. Located in Ocean Terminal shopping centre and designed/built by Dave Sowerby this almost seems to good to be true. Not sure exactly when it opens but more details will surface in the near future. Woo hoo!!!
