Nike SB x Tampa Dunk High

Image
For Nike SB's latest shop collaboration, they’ve teamed up with their longtime friends at Skatepark of Tampa for a limited-edition skate shoe inspired by a local legend. Tampa natives all know the tall tales of José Gaspar, a Spanish pirate who’s said to have pillaged the Florida coastline over two-hundred years ago. In tribute, the salty crew at SPoT have set a course to update our classic SB Dunk High with swashbuckling details: a pair of crossed cutlasses on the toe box and a parrot-feather-inspired collar designed to fray with wear, so no two pairs end up the same. The drop-in sockliner—emblazoned with a cache of gold doubloons—features a built in Nike Zoom Air unit for responsive cushioning, while the sturdy nubuck upper is ready for any skirmish. The Nike SB x Tampa Dunk High drops 9:30am tomorrow in store and will be online shortly after here .
