The iconic Bruin basketball silhouette has been co-opted by Nike Sportswear, but let’s not forget which Swoosh division initially resurrected this 1972 classic. Its timeless lines have aged well in forty years of service, but we’re still waiting for a ruby anniversary colorway, as this new Nike SB Zoom Bruin goes in the opposite direction, opting for a nearly ‘blank’ appearance where a grey leather Swoosh tops Swan suede–exactly the kind of thing you need to round out your summertime sneaker rotation. The SB-exclusive Zoom Air-embedded insoles make these an extra comfy ride with super boardfeel thanks to a traditional vulc sole, and they’re available now at a store whose name describes their own status within the Mitten: Premier.
