NIKE celebrates 4/20 with pot smoker's shoes

The goofy team at Hong Kong's Next Media Animation can't get enough of crazy marijuana news. They send us so many links to stories on pot, I think their entire animation team must be permanently stoned. Happy 4/20 NMA!

An unlikely brand is capitalizing on 4/20, the so-called pot smoker’s holiday. Nike is releasing a skateboarding sneaker commemorating marijuana folk heroes Cheech & Chong.

This isn’t Nike’s first 4/20 shoe. Last year it released the “Skunk,” an all-green shoe that closely resembles marijuana bud. The shoes are made in limited quantities, making them almost as harrowing to find as weed itself.

The biggest mystery however, is Nike’s continued fascination with 4/20 given that most pot-smoking hippies don’t wear shoes anyway.

Aw snap!
