Nike SB is keeping the Orange Label momentum rolling with a fresh new “Cool Grey” pack that’s about to hit skate shops. The collection features the Dunk, Air Max Ishod, and Vertebrae silhouettes, but there’s one question that’s been on my mind: is this the best colorway of the Vertebrae yet?
I’ve seen a Black/Gum colorway that was clean and easy. I’ve seen some Forest Greens that looked pretty rad. But this Cool Grey colorway is looking strong.
Whether you agree or not, get a closer look at the kicks below:

“The Vertebrae breaks in fast and breaks down slow, creating a consistent fit right out of the box,” Nike SB mentions on its site. “A Nike heritage color palette gives this modern shoe the perfect touch of retro.”

I don’t know what it is about this colorway, but I’m backing it. And honestly, I’ve been itching to try the Vertebrae. It’s not the standard shoe I’d usually go for, but they look strong, comfortable and now—stylish as ever. This Cool Grey pack rips!
While I’m still not completely sure when this collection will hit US shops, I know it’s going to be sooner than later. Keep your eyes peeled and we’ll do the same.
