Nike Dunk SB – The epitome of coolness

Nike Dunk SB is a line of irresistibly desirable kickers for skateboarders. The shoes were created when Nike saw the great potential behind skateboarding footwear created for yes, you guessed it – skateboarders. They were somewhat modeled after the Dunk SB’s predecessor, the Nike Dunks but with some modifications to cater to both veteran and aspiring skateboarders. An excellent cushioning system is included and to the joy of skateboarders everywhere, the Nike Dunk SB also comes with Zoom Air insoles to maintain low center of gravity. Nike also gave the Nike Dunk SB a great boost in terms of extra padding surrounding the tongue and ankle parts, as well as double and even triple stitching to ensure a snug, sturdy fit.

In a bold but charitable move by Nike, several pairs of limited edition Nike Dunk SBs fondly known as “Charity Dunks” were auctioned off in eBay. These rare babies were sold at an astounding $30,000! Nike also partnered up with Medicom to release the Nike Dunk SB Medicom that looks absolutely snazzy with a reflective 3M material, making the entire silver-colored shoe shine brightly when light hits the surface. For the current year of 2008, Nike saw fits to release a new series of Nike Dunks Vintage which are made to look as retro as when they first burst into the scene two decades ago. It features clean yet dynamic colors, perfect for any fan who appreciates the history behind these groundbreaking Nike Dunks. Then there’s the Dunkesto, another type of Nike Dunks worth mentioning which is most sought after for its adjustable Velcro, Zoom Air system and highly breathable Kuma mesh material to ensure continuing support and comfort. Then there’s the Nike Air Force One series which boast of great additions to any Nike fans such as the Hiroshi Fujiwara’s Nike Air Force One that’s crafted with authentic crocodile leather and exclusively made 18K gold lacelocks.
