Flipped colorway: Nike SB Dunk High 420 'Purple Skunk'

The Nike SB Dunk High 420 'Purple Skunk' was released on April 20, 2020! But the sneaker was not released in the Nike Store or on the SNKRS App! The skateshop 'Familia' in Minnesota released the sneaker as raffle in the 'COPDATE App'. Unfortunately there is no further drop for the time being, because the sneaker was limited to 420 pieces! Nevertheless we give you a 'preview' and why this sneaker is so special! Blaze it! Down below you will find some footage from the skateshop at the day of release!

#TheCrew Background Check

How does Nike celebrate the 20th of April, which has also established itself as the 'Cannabis Holiday' in many places around the world? Of course with a theme oriented sneaker release! Check out the pictures of the planned Nike SB Dunk High 420 'Purple Skunk' below! The sneaker looks like an Air Jordan, but it is not.

Nike honors with this gem the '4/20' day native! The details on this sneaker tell you immediately why this is the perfect '420' sneaker! Before we take a closer look at this shoe, you should know that this is a reverse version of the Nike SB Dunk High 'Skunk'! It was released in 2010 and the colors were simply switched for the 2020 model. The photo of the 2010 model, which was provided by our partner StockX, can be found below! Blaze the Haze!

Nice shoe with '420' details

With '420' details we don't just mean the printed '420' on the side of the shoe, but we'll get to that as well! Like the previous model, the sneaker retains the hairy upper, but this time the sneaker comes in two shades of purple. Doesn't this Colorway look familiar to you? Maybe the colour reminds some of you specialists of the cannabis strain 'Purple Haze'. The swoosh, as well as the heels of the sneaker are therefore also kept in a green tone! Mmm… is it 4/20 already? Apart from that there are also matching laces, green insoles with a graphic and the imprint on the side! Below you will find a picture of the shoe!

By the way: There are only 420 pairs available and yeah the embossing represents the number of the shoes!
