Updated December 19th, 2016: Nike SB Dunk High “Purple Box” releases in the US on December 26th, 2016 for $130.
Nike Skateboarding continues to celebrate the joy of purchasing a brand new pair of shoes and all of the different colors their boxes were dressed up in over the years with yet another Nike SB Dunk colored up to represent Nike SB’s cardboard. The Nike SB Dunk High Purple Box has quite the familiar aesthetic though, as the entire look is undeniably similar to the iconic MF Doom Dunks (a pair that also came in the black and purple box that this pair alludes to).
Whether it’s the high-contrast white 3M reflective piping throughout, the subtle hint of premium ostrich leather on the side panels, and the touches of suede, the Nike SB Dunk High Purple Box pays homage to MF Doom’s collaboration or at least is inspired by it. If only we could get a proper retro in the near future. You don’t have to wait for this premium Nike SB Dunk High pair to arrive at retailers either. Find your size now on eBay. Full release details coming in the near future.
