^^^^Those, my friends, are the first and way overdue signature model by the great Stefan Janoski. He got on Nike after bouncing around from the now defunked Savier and the "new look" Etnies crew which he would still fit on perfectly. Holler at Davis Torgerson, hometown dude on Etnies. Anyway, these come out this month and they couldnt represent the designer any better. He obviously went for a boat shoe look and Nike nailed it. they are super simple and basic, which is always good. There doesnt seem to be alot of high tech anything on them so they dont look like spaceboots, and I believe the laces are the kind of leather laces you sometimes get with dress shoes and what not. Anyway, he has been spotted wearing them and they look amazing. I cant say enough about them. I believe the first colorway will indeed be the go-to black suede/white, with the tan and maroon to follow. Also, there are photos of a navy blue leather and brown colorway, so be on the look out.
Here is one of his amazing parts from the skate flick "Subtleties". Its got a good into from his buddy Kyle Leeper that seems to explain Stefan in a nutshell. Notice how relaxed and smooth he is on his board, its amazing. Also, apparently he has a hunchback, which is super noticeable. It doesnt take away from his skating at all, so enjoy.
