Short for Nike SkateBoarding. Nike's foray into the skateboard shoe market.
Although Nike basketball shoes were already popular among skateboarders during the 80s due to their strong grips and durable ankle support, the Nike SB is the first offical Nike skateboarding shoe.
It's also become somewhat of a pop culture phenomenon with many non-skaters wearing the shoe.

The single greatest shoe ever made. Not only is it great looking, but it is very comfortable for walking. It's just a shame that EUROPE gets every fucking Nike Dunk and that Nike is starting to go shitty on the materials.
