Celebrating twenty years as a pro, constant innovator and street skate legend, the Nike Koston 2 maintains Eric Koston ‘s legacy of performance breakthroughs in skateboard footwear and once again redefines the design status quo. Koston and Nike Skateboarding worked closely during the creative process. Inspired by Eric’s interest in the Nike LunarGlide+ running shoes, the support was also drastically augmented, decreasing the likelihood of heel rub and the blisters that come with it. What did manage to remain on the 2nd generation Koston was the Nike Lunarlon sockliner, delivering dynamic cushioning to help absorb any impact. This go around the sockliner has been anatomically redesigned allowing 360º support and protection keeping your ankles safer during primo landings. Lastly, zonal flex grooves have been added to an updated tread pattern to increase longevity and flexibility during tricks. A clean toecap constructed with TPU reinforced suede enhances durability. The product of a complete overhaul ready for the rigors of the ground, gaps and stair sets, Koston’s insight and enthusiasm for innovation is present in every element of the Nike Koston 2. In addition to being lightweight, cool and resistant; the Nike Eric Koston 2 is presented via a video commercial directed by Jon Humphries and music is by Otis Redding, as Nike knows how to make: a scenario shifted with a small dose of humor, featuring Tiger Woods, Kyrie Irving, Neymar Jr., Allyson Felix, Danny Kass, Sean Malto, Wieger Van Wageningen, and more.
