It's starting to become a tradition that famed Nike SB guest designer Todd Batrud create a special herb-related shoe to release around the stoner holiday 4/20. This version draws its inspiration from the Cheech and Chong movies and actually caused a bit of hype by releasing later than originally scheduled. They feature a paisley pattern on one shoe said to represent Chong's bandana, and a corduroy-like pattern on the other, representing Cheech's beanie. The white parts of the shoe represent a joint (the area around the toecap reveals a green material when scuffed) while the gray parts resemble the smoke. These also feature a cloud graphic on the insole.
