Leo Baker‘s first debuted Nike SB signature shoe earlier this year. Announcing that it would be arriving in 2023 in a variety of colorways, the Nike SB React Leo is slated to release in “Cacao Wow.”

For his first signature shoe, Baker took inspiration from his favorite SBs, specifically the SB Bruin High, for its design process. The shoe comes dressed in cacao wow, black, earth and gum dark brown color schemes and sees the shoe constructed in a mixture of materials that include leather, suede and mesh. The shoe’s brown base covers the entirety of the upper while black highlights the leather Swoosh on the lateral, laces, inner lining and tongue branding. A monogram all-over “Leo” print is seen on the side panels, as well as the tongue labels and insoles. The shoe sits on a black, speckled midsole that sits atop a gum dark brown rubber outsole to round out the design.

Look out for the Nike SB React Leo “Cacao Wow” arriving in the coming months at select retailers and online at Nike for $95 USD.
