aka Nike SB P-Rod Zoom Air Low (Medium Grey/Varisty Red-Black). This officially marks my 3rd Nike purchase. After all the deliberation and thought that went into this monumental step I seem to be taking on the task with gusto!

I first saw these P-Rod's in the Kicks Hawaii newsletter which I received yesterday morning. Unfortunately Turf does not yet have a Nike SB account (you hear me NIKE? Turf needs an SB account!) and there are only a few stores in the region that do - DLX, Huf, and Skateworks.

So that was the end of that. We decide on lunch and I drive to San Mateo, park directly in front of DLX tell my friends "hold on a minute lemme check something" walk in, see the P-Rods, buy them on the spot and meet Kiya and cru for dim-sum. That marks the quickest turnaround EVER for a seen-to-purchased experience. Seen in an email, checked availability, then purchased - all within an hour or so.

These shoes are dope. They are soft suede leather in black, grey and varsity red (for the swoosh and name on back). The heel has the P-Rod logo embossed all Gucci style and the air pockets are not rounded and clear as usual but opaque, flat and angled. These are the first shoes I've purchased with a white sole - I don't usually mess with white soles because of how quickly they get dirty but I honestly couldn't pass these up in light of how cheap they were - $80!
