Light Violet Ore/Purple Smoke/Black gives the Nike SB PS8 a dusty purple upper anchored by a solid black sole. Tonal overlays frame the knit panels, and a black Swoosh crosses the middle of each side. A smaller dark logo appears near the toe, keeping the branding connected without adding another color. The outsole uses a dense, interlocking geometric tread, which looks quite different from the broader panel shapes above.
Layered Flyknit forms the upper, with leather placed in areas that receive more wear during skating. A Flyplate is integrated into the sole alongside foam and Air Zoom cushioning. HART rubber reduces the amount of compound used compared with Nike's other XDR rubber technologies. The low collar preserves the running-inspired outline of this skate model. Its regular U.S. list price on September 22, 2026 was $125.
