Nike SB PS8 "Light Khaki" FV8493-200

Nike SB introduces the PS8 “Light Khaki” with purpose-built upgrades that blend skate-specific tech with elements pulled from its performance running archives. This low-top silhouette leans on modern materials and clever construction to deliver comfort and durability from the first wear—no long break-in needed.

The upper mixes breathable layered Flyknit with leather reinforcement in high-abrasion zones. The result is a lightweight yet supportive build that keeps its shape over time, even through repeated wear. Underfoot, Nike adds an updated Flyplate to improve energy return while preserving foam responsiveness, so the shoe performs consistently no matter how many sessions it sees.

A big part of what makes the PS8 stand out lies in the outsole. The new HART (High Abrasion Rubber Tech) setup trims excess rubber to reduce weight while still gripping hard on decks and concrete. It flexes more naturally and maintains the ruggedness skaters expect, without dragging down the ride.

Zoom Air cushioning returns for that quick-off-the-ground pop, tying together a tool built for performance but subtle enough for casual wear. The “Light Khaki” colourway plays it cool with understated tones across the upper, giving it crossover appeal beyond the skatepark.
