Omar Salazar’s first signature shoe from Nike SB has dropped and it’s a doozy.  This clean little space boot has all of the amenities of current technology, as well as some from 2001:  A Space Odyssey . . . wait, now my brain just hurts.

The Salazar, for all intents and purposes, looks beefy enough to withstand just about anything you can throw at it.  An extra large stash pocket (think old Muska shoe stash pockets) enable you to conceal whatever prized goods you may be toting, and the lightweight cupsole melds with Nike’s foam and phylon footbeds for a bouncy, comfortable step.   The shoe may not look as appealing on the shelf, but ultimately, once you get it on, it’s comfortable and looks pretty aces under some jeans.

The word on the street is that Omar has been absolutely annihilating stuff in his new kicks, and Nike recently released a mini-site devoted entirely to the space-age footwear.  For those of you who are dying to try a pair, SkateDaily will be giving away 5 free pairs in their latest contest.  Follow the link for more details:  [SkateDaily]
