    WOW LOOKS LIKE THIS GUY PUT MORE EFFORT INTO HIS SHOES THAN KANYES $1000 LV SHOES. I DIDNT SEE HIM DRAWING SHIT ON A WALL LIKE A CAVE MAN. HE ACTUALLY USES A COMPUTER AND TESTS SHOES BEFORE THEY COME OUT. CLEAN DESIGN AND NICE COLOR WAY ILL ROCK THEM AND SKATE THEM AND THATS THE BOTTOM LINE

    guys, first off you gotta know the truth behind everything before going and talkin all kinds of smack about shoe companies. every pro for the last 10 15 years has designed there shoes to look like Nike’s. Now here is the best part. Are you ready! Nike SB is pretty much the only company along with Vans that is ran and designed by SKATEBOARDERS! DC reps dont skate, at all! DC bigwigs that run the company, dont skate. So dont hate on NIKE SB cause its really one of the best shoe companies out there for skateboarding. The Adidas skate line is great too. but they are just like SB. They take old classic shoes, and make them skate able. So dont hate the players. Hate the game. :)

    OMG!!! my favorite sk8er from the Adidas sk8 team…hope they going to make a video if Adidas sk8 team and Nike SB team battling…will be great!!!…honestly, as a sk8er and NSB collector for yrs, recently, i still wear NSB for everyday life, but i have been sk8ing with adidas for these months…honestly, for sk8ers, i think Adidas sk8shoes are better than Nike SB, but if you don’t sk8, then that’s not a big deal….lol

    Smack-you must be kidding right? Nike doesn’t even design their SB product. They know dopes like you will fall for another Dunk or Blazer color-up. Moron’s. How about waking up and supporting the people who have been promoting and progressing skate, like DC, Lakai, E’s, Etnies, Gravis, Supra and Vans. Nike is just buying their way into the game with suckers like you who probably don’t even skate. Bite on that, fool

    They should make these kind of video’s for Nike Sb. Seeing the dising proces is so interesting, i wonder if nike sb is going to so something like this for the upcoming Erik Koston pro model. Anyways this video is great too!

    nice turn out. i would never have picked that someone would model a skate shoe from a football shoe. thats steezy as.

    yeah, those look sick…. and it’s always cool to see the design process, even though these do look an awful lot like the Cieros… but that’s not neccessarily a bad thing.

    Nice design. Very Adidas. I wonder if deep down Dennis is thinking, “Ugh… I would rather be designing Nike SB shoes instead”. Infact, I wonder if all pro skaters think that. Drop DC, drop Lakai, drop Supra. Let all those companies fall and Nike SB be the only skate shoe. After all Nike is the end all be all of footwear.. ain’t it?
