Internationally renowned skateshop Civilist has been serving Berlin for years, a city that’s quite literally connected by the River Spree, which links many of the German capital’s neighborhoods, plazas and yes, even skateshops.
It’s the ebb and flow of the Spree that inspires the latest collaboration between the store and Nike Skateboarding, the Civilist x Nike SB Stefan Janoski Spree collection. The Zoom Stefan Janoski Spree rocks a special “waveprint” pattern throughout the black upper that mimics the water’s movement, while colorful tongue-tags and outsole channel the look of oiled water.
As refreshing as a dip in the Spree after dominating a skating session, the Stefan Janoski Max Spree brings all its rest-and-recovery tech to bear, executed in a solid-black “waveknit” jacquard build that utilizes a special double-layer construction, inspired by the reflectivity of water. Both shoes add in special insoles that map out the Spree’s path through Berlin, the perfect complement to the aquatic aesthetics.
Grab either or both at select shops on Saturday, July 11. The Zoom Stefan Janoski will run you $90, the Max $120, and both will be available on Nike.com at 10am EDT/7am PDT.
