Nike SB Dunk High x Antihero: Delving into the Collaboration
Antihero Skateboards' trade name is Deluxe Distribution, and it was owned by Ermico Enterprises, Inc. This American skateboarding company was founded in 1986. The brand is known for its aesthetic take on skateboarding. On the other hand, the skateboarding sneakers by Nike SB have been loved by fans. The line was first launched in 2002. This latest iteration of the Nike SB Dunk High with Antihero in 'Wolf Grey' colorway continues the loved line.
However, the Nike SB Dunk High was originally designed for basketball. As demands evolved, the shoes were also taken to skateboarding with some changes in their design and build. Below is what Nike had to mention:
"Road tested and road ready, the Antihero squad’s defacto home has always been the comfort and crust of the van. Riding dirty since the ‘90s, their namesake Dunk High pays homage to the layered chaos of their trusted cruising vessel using a mixed suede and leather upper with tumbled and crackle applications."
The upper of the Nike SB Dunk High x Antihero 'Wolf Grey' is made with a mix of cracked leather and suede. The cracked leather is seen in areas like the toe box, eyelets, and collar. Suede overlays are seen around the quarter and toe box. The color scheme comes with a palette of Wolf Grey and White. The Swoosh and rear panels are clad in clean white. The outsole is made of rubber and is colored in black.
It also has a cropped collar, which is inspired by the skateboarding icon Brian Anderson. It surrounds the ankle. The shoes feature an exposed foam tongue. The Antihero logo is subtly debossed on the tongue. To offer personalization to the customers, it comes with two lace options. The sneakers also feature a “Stay Ready” graphic on the insole.
Below is what Nike had to mention about the shoes on its official product page:
"Littered with hidden details and nods to their twisted take on Americana, this Antihero Dunk iteration features a cropped collar inspired by SB legend Brian Anderson."
It continues:
"Packed with two lace options and a “stay ready” mission statement, it also includes “pre-dirtied” exposed foam sockliners that say everything you need to know about skateboarding’s most infamous road dogs."
