Nike has been doing some interesting work lately with super-highcut sneakers.  This trend continues, albeit with a different goal in mind with the Nike SFB.  Under the watchful eye of Tinker Hatfield’s brother Tobie, the Innovation Kitchen cooked up this combat boot-like hybrid in honor of Nike founder Bill Bowerman’s tenure in the US Army.  These joints are ready for war with a Sticky Rubber and Natural Motion Cushioning-equipped Free soles.  Add in the “puncture and laceration resistant thermoplastic forefoot shield and genuine leather with Kevlar sheath” and these can be considered a serious option for combat officers.  Touted as some of the lightest and fastest drying boots on the planet, these represent a modern approach to military footwear.  Whether they’ll ever make it to the consumer market or out on the battlefield is uncertain as of this writing, so keep it locked to Sneaker News for updates.  via SnkrFrkr
