The Nike SB Koston 1 launched last summer with a couple of Zoom Kobe VI-infused hybrid makeups, and now here’s our first look at a second mashup that goes in an unprecedented new direction. The Kobe x Koston mashup made sense as something like the modern day answer to that Air Jordan 1 x Nike SB we’re still waiting for, but a classic runner is a bit of a reach, historically speaking. Perhaps this new Koston 1 x Air Max 90 will be a part of the impending shift in SB/6.0 distribution, whereby more mall retailers will get the (former) SB signatures in a redesigned box. These first two colorups include one that adds red accents to a grey/white base and another that has about as much connection to the AM95 ‘Neon’ as the former does the ‘Infrared’ 90s.

These are interesting, might buy if released with the Atmos colorway, just might.
that would be dope
Without the mudguard, I'd think these would be pretty clean, If they did come out with these, they probably would be dope to skate in (considering the koston's are already so sick to skate it)
Need better colorways. I like how its just stiching and not paneling.
I hate the concept of nike combining styles due to lack of new ideas. But I think if I was not into shoes and could not recognize AM90s and Koston1s, I would think these look pretty clean. Considering some of the horrific fusions nike has been making in the last few years, these are honestly one of its better ones.
Huge air max 90 fan, and also a huge fan of the new kostons. Can't wait to see these.
Huge fan of the Koston's and my AM90 collection has reached stupid numbers. These however, are an abomination. What the hell are Nike thinking?
are you guys retarded take two great things and combine them and they look amazing these are about to be so hype for skaters
agree with you. love the kostons, love am90s. combine the two, and it doesn't work for me.
