The Nike SB Pogo Plus Premium in Black Gum On-Feet & Sizing – (video)

1. Design & Materials

The Pogo Plus Premium upgrades the standard Pogo profile with elevated materials designed for both durability and clean aesthetic appeal:

  • Upper: Premium suede and durable canvas construction in stealthy all-black, offering immediate break-in comfort without sacrificing toughness in high-wear areas.
  • Outsole: Classic gum rubber outsole with raised taping and reinforced toe caps for enhanced flick and grip.
  • Cushioning: Snappy Zoom Air unit embedded in the heel insole to cushion impact landings while preserving maximum boardfeel.

2. Sizing & Fit Advice

Getting the right fit on skate shoes can be tricky given internal padding and snug toe boxes. Here is what to expect with the Pogo Plus Premium:

  • True to Size (TTS): For standard to narrow feet, go with your regular Nike SB or standard sneaker size.
  • Wide Feet: Consider going half a size up. The reinforced forefoot overlay and vulcanized tape make the toe box feel snug right out of the box.
  • Break-in Period: Minimal to moderate. The suede softens after 1–2 wears, molding comfortably to your foot shape.
