Plenty of people partake of green beer each St. Patrick’s Day, but even this colorful expression is but a mere nod to the true OG of Irish brews. The new Nike SB Dunk High ‘Guinness’ pictured above takes advantage of the calendar without throwing out just another clover colorway. It’s particularly interesting that this one takes on a ‘Black and Tan’ appearance, just as the recently revealed Dunk Low SB by that same name incorporates a side panel gradient to get some pale ale influence in there. This Guinness colorup is decidedly simpler, and perhaps the plainest of all of Swoosh Skateboarding’s adult beverage homages to date. Have a closer look at them and let us know if you’ll head out to your local Nike SB retailer like Black Sheep in Charlotte to grab this ‘Below the Line’ in-store exclusive.
I'm about tired of the beer dunks. there is a world of inspiration out there tap in to it instead of the same shit year after year.
wish they would've gone with a real gum sole...
The reason I liked SB's is because of their crazy and different designs. These are way to plain. Nike SB needs to step their game up in the creativity department.
The "un-loden" dunk lows from last year (add tan laces) look much closer to Guiness merchandise than these do.
I have these and yes they look better with the tan laces. I thought those recently pictured dunk lows were the "Guiness or Black and Tans" not these?
I guess it's a pack. These are just Guinness the others are black and tan which is usually guineas with a pale ale on Top.
wonder if they will look better with the Tan laces
honestly these are just to plain if you compare these to another sb that was inspired by beer like the new castles they just don't come close, even if they had kept that color way they could have added in a better variety of materials, sbs used to be known for there crazy designs but these are just kind of boring
don't compare this and that just appreciate what's in front of you. not all things have to be alike
Wish these weren't in-store only. Would cop.
these are in store only
i feel like they really could have been more creative here
Simple design
I must say, these are looking pretty decent.
