I dont see why nike would keep the skate program. most of the shoes have been a bust except for janoski and dunks, but janoskis have fallen out of favor and dunks don't need to be in SB.
I was about to disagree with you but I realized the blazers I’m skating aren’t even SB but still get the job done.
i like the tiny headed bear who says nice stuff to everyone.

Goddamn these have to be the ugliest fucking shoes ever made.

These look like they told PRod he had to use materials from the scrap pile for his new colorway.

These are all of Prods infamous colorways plastered onto one shoe... Just give us the original colorways instead.

But, then how would they sell a bunch of scrap material for $150 to the mentally-challenged sneaker community?

Everytime someone on here talks about how much better Nike's designs are than say, Emerica or Lakai, my mind immediately goes to shit like this.

That dumb colorway is literally a mashup of materials/colors used on all the promodel nikes he’s had which is like 11 if you count the j-rod.

Y’all really too dumb to see that? Shits literally named “what the paul”... as in it’s basically a “what the” dunk 2.0

Scouts will be at DewTour this whole week looking for talent. I take it whomever places top 3 in each discipline will get an offer.

Pretty sure there been established in this thread or another when people was making fun of them. They are still ugly as fuck and look like budget floor scraps sewn together.

Also this isnt supposed to come of as an attack. Just a longer  “yeah , but still” response

Imagine keeping track of different eras of a pro skater’s shoe and then calling other people dumb because they didn’t.

You're confusing "bemused" with "offended".

word on the street is that this is the last P.Rod colorway or shoe for that matter. I'm not a big fan of Nike but I really hope that they don't stop giving Paul colorways/pro models

Specific Nike SB branding was sporadic on the skaters at Dew Tour last weekend. Nigel in what looked like a Nike Tennis shirt and Sky Brown in a straight up Nike logo shirt. Yuto kept it real with some SB gear.  I wouldn't have noticed the SB was missing if not for this thread.

Nike aint cutting the skate program....they are simply cutting costs.....contracts not being renewed etc.......maybe someone upstairs felt the whole program was a bit bloated and he told the TM's to cut things down.....its as simple as that.

I could be mistaken but I don’t think he’s ever been listed on their website.

Hard to tell if the remaining people 'made the cut' or are just awaiting a contract to expire.

Can't imagine Nick Boserio is bringing a lot of value to the brand (though me gusta his skateboarding tricks).

Highly doubt Nike had “scrap material” just laying around for What The P Rods. Like they just have a bin inside the warehouse labeled old P Rod stuff haha. They might not be the most aesthetically pleasing shoes but the details on them are crazy. Kinda cool he debuted them with a part too. Whether you like him or his shoes can’t deny he’s done some great skating over the years. Would be cool to see him go back to éS one day full circle.
