Skate shoes and soccer shoes have a lot in common. From the flat soles to the grippy uppers, and a balance between support and underfoot feel, indoor soccer boots have served as frequent inspiration for some of the best skate shoes in history. Still, most skaters have more in common with the rowdy supporters in the stands than the players themselves.

Nike is celebrating the upcoming World Cup across its catalog, and the latest soccer-themed colorway of the Air Max 95 taps into the recently updated Nike SB silhouette. Part of a two-pack inspired by the World Cup, the Air Max 95 SB World Cup Sail showed up in leaked previews last month, and now, a closer look shows off the subtle upper and sunset gradient accents.
