Up: Nimh Shima Prototype.

Here is a first look at the Vicious liner that will come in the Nimh Shima skate. The Shima boot only is the maiden skate from the Nimh brand that Jon Elliott and Brian Shima have recently founded. I was down in San Diego visiting Jon and Brian last night, and I was able to take a quick pic with my cellphone. - Matt Mickey.

Take a pair of Deshi Colin Kelso 1 (black skates) and a pair of Deshi Colin Kelso 2 (white skates), mix their parts and you got the nice customs by The Suspencer.
