This month, adidas Skateboarding once again hands over creative control to team-rider, Na-Kel Smith to personalize a timeless brand silhouette and a personal favorite—the Nizza. The pro-rider applies the “NAK” treatment to the 1975 classic that has been updated with a modern, refined treatment (RF) with one shoe representing Smith’s wild side, and the other for his mild side. Both models receive a hairy suede treatment hand-picked by Nak, the bold green hi-top silhouette is contrasted by an understated, black low model. The two Nizza RFS x Na-Kel offerings continue an on-going collaboration between brand and rider, where select team riders reimagine silhouettes through updated color, material and custom design details.




Both Nizza RFS x Na-Kel styles come with Nak-art custom pins and will be available through the adidas Skateboarding website and select Skateboarding retailers beginning August 10th. The Nizza RFS Hi x Na-Kel will retail for $100 and the Nizza RFS x Na-Kel will retail for $85.
