To accompany the January 2009 release of the book "Made for Skate", throughout the month of December and a few days into January, Nike SB has set up an exclusive "Made for Skate" space. Outlining a number of different skate-relevant artifacts, a number of old school pieces are on hand for viewing. To also mark the event, a limited edition pair of modified Nike SB Blazers were created based on a 1979 Hobie classic.
These Nike SB "Made for Skate" Blazers, limited to 24 pairs worldwide, dropped on November 30th, so once again we went to Amsterdam for a new camp-out ! This time no pairs were kept aside for friends and family, even Nike employees had to line up, so we had more chance to grap a pair.
The limited Nike SB Made for Skate Blazer. One pair went to the exhibition, so only 23 pairs were for sale !

Ebay Charity Nike Dunk. This pair was auctioned off at a 2003 ASR event. The anonymous top bidder paid $ 30,000 and had a pair in his size sent to him. The pair seen at the auction was sawed into pieces in front of everyone, in order to keep the bidder's pair a "1:1" ratio.
