Yes, there are a lot of big releases this weekend, but the biggest impending release in the skate community is the Nike SB Koston 2. In a recent interview with Highsnobiety, Eric Koston discusses his favorite features of the Koston 2 and how it compares to the Nike SB Koston 1. Koston explains how the Koston 2?s sockliner is form-fitting, which guarantees a more snug and controled fit.
Next, he explains how the 2s inner bootie is one piece, making the sneaker glove-like. Then, the heel counter makes your foot stationary during impact. Finally, Koston explains that the thread is thicker while also perforated to make for a more durable and breathable sneaker. Make sure to catch the Koston 2 in retailers on April 1, 2013.
