Doughboy Skate Kicks

MoCA x Lance Mountain x Nike SB Blazer Celebrates a Successful Partnership

— July 20, 2011 — Fashion
Nike is launching another pair of sneakers to add to the SB series dubbed the MoCA x Lance Mountain x Nike SB Blazer.

The MoCA x Lance Mountain x Nike SB Blazer adds to the family of skateboarding shoes that's been pretty impressive so far. This new pair of kicks is being released by Nike to commemorate its partnership with MoCA Los Angeles. The sports company enlisted the help of artist Lance Mountain to design the shoes, which feature his famous doughboy character that should be recognizable to those who are familiar with his work.

If you are looking to get a pair, it's important to know that these are extremely limited in numbers and sizes. Only 24 will be produced with only three colors and sizes available. There will be a special silent auction for the shoes at the MoCA store on July 28th, 2011.
