Nike is merging the best features

By Harry Peter

For skateboard champions, it is really tantalizing to buy Nike Dunk SB shoes right from the days when they arrived on the scene as a product for basketball; however, going on to steal the show as it did, is a surprise even to the sneaker pundits. As of today, the popularity of Nike Dunk SB is immense and can be ranked among the top shoes made by Nike. No doubt, part of the credit must also go to the casual buyers for buying/supporting every release of Nike Dunk SB and celebrating it as an opportunity of life.

Nike is merging the best features of its entire range of popular brands such as Nike Air Jordans with a view to consolidate the position of Nike Dunk SB shoes as it gained in popularity. Additionally, owing to their scarcity, Nike Dunk SB is the sports or casual pair of shoes in huge demand.

The resounding success of Nike Dunk SB has spurred variants devoted to other sports such as events like long & high jumps, marathon etc which is accepted by everyone in a big fashion. You are missing something if you haven’t seen they way fans receive each new release. Remember how teenagers were buying shoes amongst other gifts in the build up to Christmas? Nike remembers its humble beginnings and is still producing SBs for hardcore skateboarders.

Diversifying into casual wear market was only an extension for Nike albeit by making several changes to its SB Dunk in sprucing it out of the Dunks. Major changes include the addition of extra cushion to fend off the foot strain; lo center of gravity for enhanced suitability and better maneuverability; additional Zoom Air insole etc. None the least, additional padding around the ankle and thicker tongue were introduced. Nike switched over to double and triple stitching, a norm for skateboarding shoes. To say the least, Nike prepared to take on the new market by the scruff irrespective of its delayed entry.

The ever increasing repute and the sky rocketing demand for Nike Dunk SB have hatched counterfeit manufacturers by the hundreds. I was dumb stricken to see “What the Dunk”; a strange but fake piece; I can say fake with conviction because I could see the Nike logos on the insoles only, Jesus! An odd custom Nike Dunk SB, although designed for some activity or the other may be misleading, just watch out.

Only “Piazza SB Dunk”, a special edition, appealed to me most from amongst the sea of SBs. It was nick named after the legendary Wieger Van Wageningen, a Dutch skateboarder. There are rare of the rarest Nike Dunk SB shoes that choke you because of their price tags; one such piece is FLOM or “For Love or Money”, as it is called. It carried a price tag of $9,000! Beware; this is a market where fake manufacturers galore and sell counterfeits as “variants” in order to cover-up for discrepancies. It is difficult to memorize all Nike Dunk SB releases keeping in mind the legacy of over twenty years. What you can’t forget is the nostalgic memories of the first Nike Dunk SB you bought ages ago.
