Amid a slew of new silhouettes and colorways brought on by the Paris Olympics, the dawn of the Nike SB PS8 is perhaps the most notable. Genuinely representing the “latest & greatest” out of the skateboarding subdivision, the model has surged out to a very warm reception, marking sell-outs in most of its releases so far. Will it accomplish the same with the just unveiled “Obsidian” transforms?

The addition of the model comes during a particularly prolific era of Nike SB. On top of the enduring relevance of the SB Dunk Nike air huarache unisex lifestyle sneakers dd1068-001 Janoski, signature shoes for Leo Baker and Ishod Wair Nike Air Edge 270 Medium Olive Vertebrae.
