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” edition?
Many of the “must-have” aspects from the wider skate shoe market remain on the PS8, from the Adapt cupsole to the increased cushioning and structure at high-friction areas. What sets it apart from its peers isis the full injection of tech; a Flyknit body makes for a lighter shoe, a Flyplate sole adds responsiveness and a High Abrasion Adapt Tech (HART) outsole maintains flexibility without sacrificing grip. Of course, any shoe has to blend functionality and aesthetics, and the “Obsidian” look here taps into a reliable aquatic palette to achieve that.
The addition of the model comes during a particularly prolific era of Nike SB.
