Sailing Skater Shorts

The Ahoy Shorts from Nike SB and Fourstar are Nautically Themed

Nike SB and Fourstar have teamed up to create a killer pair of shorts for summer, aptly dubbed Ahoy shorts. These navy blue shorts have little gold captain's wheels interspersed throughout, making them worthy of any seaman.

I am not normally one for shorts with stuff on them, but I am digging the design of the Ahoy shorts. The captain's wheels are a nice touch and they help separate the Ahoy shorts from the millions of other pairs of navy blue shorts that are sure to be gracing the boardwalk this summer.
