HUF Shows Us How It's Supposed To Be Done And Puts The Clean Back In 'Collabo'

The San Francisco based, eternally skate-friendly and rightfully-worshipped fashion staple HUF recently teamed up with Nike Skateboarding to bring you two brilliant vulcanized, canvas SB blazers that will be dropping at HUF's two flagship locations in LA and SF this Saturday, November Seventh.

Now close your eyes and say the words "vulcanized, canvas SB blazer" to yourself about four of five times in succession. If someone unfamiliar with those terms were to walk in on you and your cobbleresque-mantra they might think you were imagining a military-issued combat jacket that you could wear to a formal dinner. Though they would be a bit off the mark, that misconception wouldn't be horribly untrue because these sneakers are as ambiguous as can be. You could skate these shoes all day and still wear them to a snazzy party without looking like you didnt care about how people judged you. Designed to be as aesthetically pleasing as a basketball-turned-skate shoe can possibly be, the Huf piece exhibits noticeably-subtle branding with an oxymoronic monochrome swoosh-stitch over a lightweight black or cream canvas. The Classic vulcanized sole technology also ensures that board-feel (or 'floored-feel' if you choose to walk in these) will stay on your side, and the metal-reinforced eyelets show that if your laces rip you'll still have holes to thread new ones into.   

Also hot off the presses are SB co-branded jackets, trucker hats, and t-shirts all inspired by the aesthetics of 1950's American fashion staples.
