Right now Nike makes 3 models of skate shoes, and they are each very different:

The Zoom Air_E-Cue, which looks kind of like any other hyped up Nike shoe. It doesn’t really even look like a skate shoe at all, but it's usualy the most expensive.

The Zoom Air_URL, which looks great, kind of like a mix between a sports shoe and a skate shoe. It also tends to be expensive, but not so much as the E-cue.

The main model, the Dunk Pro SB (a re-make of an 80’s Nike skate shoe attempt). These look more like your retro skate shoe, but the huge Nike swoosh is really hard to miss. These shoes are the most easy to find, and the most popular.

This August another model is coming out, the Zoom Air Angus, which might be just great, but the flash add on the Nike web page is a little scary.

Check out the Nike web page to see more about these shoes, but be prepared to wade through a lot of flash to get to what you want. The page is multimedia heavy, and awkward, but the information is there and they have some interesting info along the way.
