You're getting a double dose of Nigel Sylvester today. This time, it's about shoes. According to Nike 6.0, Nigel's new signature Mavrk shoes are "Like chocolate, but for your feet." Personally, I can't think of anything worse than sticking my feet in chocolate, but whatever floats your boat is okay with me. Here's the description, straight from Nike 6.0:
"Nigel Sylvester's designed Mavrk features a premium, black on black play of texture and materials. The right foot boasts a toe box sewn in ostrich leather, while the left shoe is pure croc. The stingray leather swooshes alternate, gold on the outside and black on the inside. Up front the shoe keeps itself perpetually cool with an ice gel toe bumper balanced out with the quilted regal lining in purple, the color of kings that come from Queens."
Nigel's new Mavrk is available exclusively from Dan's Comp on November 2. That is all the Nigel promotion we have for you today, so rest easy now.
