Nike Dunk High Template
|
Nike Inc., Shoe Company released the first Nike Dunk sneaker in 1985. Againt common thought,
Nike Dunks were not
originally meant for skate boarders. In fact, the original release was a Dunk High and intended for basketball players.
Dunks were meant to give an alternative to the Air Jordan sneaker, which was released the same year.
The color themes of the first Nike Dunk Highs were based on the NCAA college teams that had the best win records and
most influential in basketball at the time. Nike wanted to use the growing college basketball fan market to further their
lead in the basketball shoes market.
During the period Nike was focusing on building the Nike Dunk as a worldly known basketball sneaker, they also had a
creative department that dabbled in the idea of making a Skateboarding sneaker. Dancing with the idea of Nike
Skateboarding for over a decade, Nike officially moved forward with the Nike SB project in 2002. Nike discontinued
using Nike Incorporated on their skateboarding products and came up with the Nike SB logo and professional
skateboarding line.
The original Nike SB shoes retailed for $65 according to many sources. However, Nike Dunk Lows, Mids, and Highs are
extremely popular today. Rock, Hip-Hop, Pop, and nearly all other music cultures glamorize the sneaker making it
very trendy. Prices of the shoe have risen to all-time highs due to the popularity, causing Nike SB retailers to
charge $135 for some shoes and $95 for others.
In 2008 Nike SB comemmorated the success of Nike Dunks with the release of the Nike SB Dunk Low "What The Dunk"
Edition. The highly anticipated shoe released to a consumer crowd that ate the retail price easily. The
What The Dunk SB shoes now retail for over $1,000 USD on-line.
The most popular Nike Dunks is debated by many. However, KicksAndChicks.com's team agrees the Nike SB Dunk Low
Pigeons are the most sought after dunks of all-time. The sneaker caused an uproar on its release in
New York City, in which security had to be called for fights over people trading places in line.
Other popular Nike Dunks include the Nike SB High Send Help, Nike SB Low Hawaii (aka Lava), Nike SB Dunk Low Tiffany,
and Nike SB Dunk High De La Souls. New Dunks such as the Nagoyah Premium Highs, Olympics Highs, and Dontrelle Willis
Edition Highs have also recieved much attention.
