Title: Sighted on the Web

Not sure where this one fits in (Mods, feel free to move this post as necessary), but check out the Eagle about 1/4 the way down this page:

Unique to say the least.

Wow! That's crazy! Appears to be some sort of sponsored Build by Nike? Weird.

They built it to promote the Seagle model of shoes in 2006 I believe. Wonder what happened to it?

Try this! Gotta love Google Translate. It's not perfect usually, but can usually let you know the basics! :)

Yeah, you can take any site URL and paste it into Google Translate and click enter...it will give you a link in the translation box. Click on it and it opens up in the language you choose. Pretty cool huh! :)

there used to be a site that had the details of the build. I can't seem to find it. If my memory serves me correct, I believe it was built on a Suburban chassis. Rafe, You need to get a pair of the Nike Seagle 6.0. They supposedly are inspired by the wood grain pattern.

The Seagle sports a different design scheme now.

If you're running Safari, Firefox or Opera, you can add a button for translating. AFAIK, not avail for Exploiter.

It looks like they are limited editions that were made a few years back and hard to find. Nike Seagle 6.0.
