another fine example of nike's "fuck it, just reissue the old shit" mentality
It’s the 20th anniversary of SB’s 1st pro model. Seems kinda justified. What are the other examples?
I'm not talking about SB, just Nike in general. pretty much anything else the company as a whole put out in the last few years reeks of their reissue mentality. Mac Attack, Air Ship, everything with Jordan/Kobe, everything with Dunks, Vomero 5, everything with ACG. It's either that or create something that looks like it could be a retro Nike model but isn't, like the ishod 1/2, that weird Travis Scott shoe, book 1. Here is a good article:

That being said, what is even the last release he had? When has Koston last put out a shoe?
