Nike SB would be releasing new sneakers that are inspired by classic Guitars. As the name of this sneaker suggests, this shoe was inspired by the Fender Bass guitar. The store called 242 has stock of these shoes.
The Fender bass guitar was created by Leo Fender. This guitar stood out from other guitars because of its brighter and richer tone.
The toe box is silver-grey and represents the knobs and metallic portion of the Fender bass. Running down the length of the shoe, the shoe lace would represent the guitar strings. There is a pattern of bullet holes spraying out from the center of the toe box.
The brown represents the wood part of the guitar. At the heel, the black portion of the backstab has been given a different appearance with specks of pink.
The inner sole has a beige background with a graphic pattern in white. The bottom most sole of the shoe is grey and it has some neat treads.
There is a shoe strap at the top of the column of shoe laces. This resembles the guitar’s strap that is worn across the shoulder.
I like the combination of colors in this shoe. Even the tongue has been given a natural color like beige. This blends with the other colors.
