- barryiggins, on 10/16/2008, -0/+20buried for not giving me super powers
- trodemaster, on 10/16/2008, -4/+22screw nike they are 20 years late to skate
- Zcaithaca, on 10/16/2008, -0/+12I disagree...
the suede is 10X better than leather...Doesn't crack, resists wear, and doesn't get scuffed as easily
patent leather does suck though - holzp, on 10/16/2008, -0/+12I have the Venom shoes, ever since I started wearing them I have been really tired but crime has been wayyy down....
- algaeturd, on 10/16/2008, -4/+16Nike needs to lay off of the suede and patent leather materials in their dunks. They should stick with the all leather, classic initial Jordan shoe. The plastic stuff just falls apart when you skate and the suede isn't much better.
- nemrel, on 10/16/2008, -0/+10I know what is going to be the hot item in this years "sweat" shops! Thank you nimble Asian fingers.
- AmyVernon, on 10/16/2008, -0/+8Suede and patent leather aren't plastic.
- Madhattan, on 10/16/2008, -0/+7Dunk SBs aren't really meant to be skated in. If you don't get it, then you don't get it...
- HanSolo69, on 10/16/2008, -0/+6Oh, you mean like Venom? Because they included him.
- djHBRD, on 10/16/2008, -0/+6lolumad?
- Ramble, on 10/16/2008, -3/+9If you want to look like a pot smoking moron in red and blue - these are the shoes for you!
- jlee2081, on 10/16/2008, -0/+4the SB ones are nice. the limitedsole kicks are hideous
- aquapete, on 10/16/2008, -1/+5sb's while said to be for skateboarding are not really for that. they are for collectors and sneakerheads. everything comes out in limited editions only, theyre are more commonly a strange color combo in which the majority of people think they are disgusting while the rest think theyre hot. also they only get sold in boutique shops and sell out immediately becuase theyre sold for 79$ and go up in value within weeks.
do a search for sb dunk pigeons, zoo yorks, unkle edition.. and many more - fragglesrock, on 10/16/2008, -0/+4They would be the only Nikes left in a Walmart after a major hurricane.
- DeathJux, on 10/16/2008, -0/+4The "swoosh" symbol is nothing but a whip in mid-swing.
- smallchaz, on 10/16/2008, -0/+3Is it just me or do those shoes look dirty even if new?
- hawk3210, on 10/16/2008, -0/+3I sort of agree. I'd like to see them go back to all leather, but the Nike skate shoes they are have surprising durability...
- cawpin, on 10/16/2008, -1/+4Suede IS leather.
- Madhattan, on 10/16/2008, -0/+3These are really uninspired. I mean, look at what Bape did with DC...

- carolinaboarder, on 10/16/2008, -0/+3Dude if you don't like those corporations just don't purchase their products, support local shops/shapers and stuff. If they aren't stopping you from catching surf then don't worry about it because all they are doing is bringing more people into the sport, which is good in the long run.
- Matt-lars, on 10/16/2008, -0/+3I really wish I could digg your comment twice dude.
- carolinaboarder, on 10/16/2008, -0/+3OK, I sound like I want the beaches to be crowded all the time, I don't. The only reason I say it will help is because the more people that do it, the more accepted by society it will be. Where I am from if you are a surfer or skater you are a frowned upon and I just think if more people did it then it would change their view haha. I definitely hate crowded swell.
- OldManNiko, on 10/16/2008, -0/+3Nothing says "Please kick my ass on the playground today" like these shoes, and maybe superhero underoos.
- veriix, on 10/16/2008, -0/+3Walmart? Those would be the first stolen.
- inactive, on 10/16/2008, -0/+2yikes
- Satualanus69, on 10/16/2008, -0/+2Nike needs to bail on the SURF & SKATE industry period. like people who wear nike's know how to drop that nose into the pocket
and pump down a face im tired of seeing these corporate goons banking in on my sports its bad enough our industry is being taken over by big surf corporations like billabong, quicksilver, or hurly. - quantumd, on 10/16/2008, -0/+2So DC and Bape made clothing for 45 year old mental handicaps that work at McDonalds?
- Huangism, on 10/16/2008, -0/+2wow really? this on the front sports page? lame!
- blueblazer17, on 10/16/2008, -0/+2seriously, this got dugg?
- shazzb0t, on 10/16/2008, -0/+2How the ***** are these any different than regular gray shoes? I don't see how they are even "inspired" by comic book characters.. Makes absolutely no sense.
- misterparry, on 10/16/2008, -0/+2DC and Marvel, how in the hell did NIKE pull that one off?
- inactive, on 10/16/2008, -0/+2canvas, bitches.
- Satualanus69, on 10/16/2008, -0/+1skateboarding and surfing will always be associated with the bad and slackers dude. my girlfriend is a 2nd grade school teacher and a conversation came up with her and here fellow co workers about me and me skating to work every morning and every body assumed that one i didnt have a real job and two that i didnt have a drivers license so all my girlfriend got was looks like she was supporting a 30 yr old loser what ever, i make better money than them drawing houses and i have an education. screw bringing more people in, all it does is bring problems and crowds ive been pushed out of 2 of my spots because of people. I totally support local shops like mad and shapers as well i just think Nike needs to quit trying to corner the market on everything. its kind of busted that Sector nine is Billabong now its kind of lame that means everything board wise might stay basic they will put a standard on deck design so they can save money and mass produce. look at WRV when tommy more shaped for them they had tons of innovative shortboard shapes even prototypes like mad now since there corporate the shaping is basic designs nothing different nothing innovative no experimenting just a board and thats it. i guess thats why tommy moore moved to LOST.
carolinaborder you hitting Wrightsville B or Masonboro or are you a banx rider - volcompimp, on 10/16/2008, -0/+1I work in a skateshop and there are kids who actually do skate in them and come in looking for them.
I usually tell them "Sorry, we only carry skate shoes" to piss them off.
@djHBRD: Was drunk last night when I posted that but yes I hate Nike. - mcphatty, on 10/16/2008, -1/+2you clearly dont skateboard.
- Satualanus69, on 10/16/2008, -0/+1Thank you!
- yourbrokenoven, on 10/16/2008, -1/+2lame lame lame lame lame. now we're selling toddler shoes to adults and calling the idea "new." they could at least attempt to make the shoes look good... and if not, they could at least try to make them look like batman's shoes, and not just some dirty nikes.
- siliconpark, on 10/17/2008, -0/+1***** Nike and all skaters who wear em. Yeah.. that means you Lance Mountain.
- Zippo, on 10/16/2008, -0/+112-year-old skaters everywhere will really dig these.
I use to have Superman sneakers back in the day, too. Velcro straps and all. - jack12345678910, on 10/16/2008, -0/+1umm, its been done. its called kids shoes.
- inactive, on 10/16/2008, -0/+1Uh, there's no way these are skateboarding shoes, they would rip apart in a week. If nike says they are then they are a bunch of mongoloids.
- CRGRollerDerby, on 10/16/2008, -0/+0Which kicks would Princess America dig?
- skateperiod, on 10/16/2008, -0/+0they need wolverine ones!!
- nihilism5150, on 10/16/2008, -2/+2LAME! Why did this make front page. First, Nike should stick to its own territory (ie: basketball and running). Second, Ugly. Thirdly, Nikes are crap for skateboarding.
Know your place Nike. Know your place.... - anuo520, on 06/16/2009, -0/+0it look nice but you can get more http://www.airjordancity.com
- lanboots, on 11/17/2008, -0/+0I wear adio shoes while skateboarding all the time. And sometimes Merrell too
