The Nike SB Bruin was a later addition to the Nike SB footwear line, but the Bruin itself is considered as one of the OGs. The Bruin was the first ever Nike Basketball shoe and after a brief retro in the early-mid 90s, the Bruin came back as part of the Nike SB camp. The low-profile, low-cut shoe is now considered vastly outdated in basketball but fits right in with the skate-shoe demands – thus making it a popular choice among the Nike SB team. This newest colorway – actually an August 2010 release – features a rich cappuccino brown upper with a white contrasting lace and swoosh, with a fitting red inner lining and bottom sole. Luckily for us, these dropped early over at Flatspot so head there to cop yours.
