Recently we caught a few photos of Paul Rodriguez doing every skaters favorite task, setting up a new complete. However Paul was accomplishing this feat in ultimate style wearing what seems to be a test wear version of his newest Signature shoe. The shoes seem to have very similar theory to the P-Rod 2. The most apparent changes are a new lacing system and a less padded tongue. Sneaker Freaker recently held an interview with Paul Rodriguez where he mentioned the shoes are slated for a Summer 2009 release, however we may still see some changes to the model before they hit the streets.

Years ago Nike SB made the controversial release of the original J-Rods for their marquee skater, Paul Rodriguez to wear in the 2006 X-Games. The J-Rod Ones were P-Rods first signature model in a special make up. The shoes were said to be designed by the legendary Jordan Brand designer Tinker Hatfield and featured several Jordanesque attributes including the Jumpman logo, Elephant Print, as well as an overall Chicago Bulls themed color way. However, later it was rumored that Jordan Brand was upset with the Nike SB release due to the unauthorized use of their Jumpman logo and that this would never happen again. However we did happen to see a Jordanesque P-Rod 2 low, and now for the 2008 X-Games we have an Elephant Print P-Rod 2 High. The shoes also feature the classic Jordan Elephant Print with a Chicago Bulls inspired color way. This time around we feature the shoe in the brand new silhouette of the P-Rod 2 High. The P-Rod 2 high features all todays top technology you would come to expect from Nike Pro Signature shoe, with the comfort of a Nike SB Dunk High. Be on the look out for these to hit your nearest Nike SB dealer in August right around the time the 2008 X-Games push off. Via RMK Store

Soon to be released by Nike SB is one pair of light blue Nike Blazer’s and two pairs of Paul Rodriguez’s P-Rod II’s. The Nike Blazer’s have a black swoosh on the azure suede uppers, reminiscent of the Sea Crystal Nike SB Dunk High’s released back in 2004. The outsole and laces of the shoe are white. The first P-Rod II colorway features a different shade of a dark blue on almost every panel with a white midsole and swoosh. These panels are made of suede, while the area near the eyelets contain a grey, reptile skin-like design. The sneaker is finished off with a red inner lining. The second colorway of the P-Rod II’s is also suede, but is golden-tan colored with black accents. This shoe features a grey and black sole, with the heel containing gold specks. The inner lining and laces of the shoe are white. For those who can’t wait until they show up in regular Nike SB retailers, these three sneakers are now available at CCS.

The upper’s color is actually sail and not white as we originally though and the yellow is neon yellow.

Hiroshi Fujiwara first revealed the two P-Rods he designed back in June of 2007 and he’s been posting close up shots ever since. He finally gave the public a full view of them yesterday on his Honeyee website. While the first colorway was very dark, the second pair is a nice contrast with a white upper. The most unique part of the shoe is the heel tab which features a rainbow color strip. They also seem to come with a number of color laces from earlier detail shots. They are schedule to drop at hynee.Store on May 31st, no other details were announced on availability elsewhere.
