Even though it’s a couple of years too late, the Gucci-inspired Dunk High SB colourway will finally make it’s way to stores later this year. Back when Nike’s SB line had peeps queueing up outside stores on a constant basis, the elusive Guccis were one of the most talked about and highly anticipated releases.
Only time will tell if the extreme hype will return, but at least those that really wanted a pair don’t have to pay crazy money for samples. Also, these won’t be the only Gucci-inspired Dunk Highs to be released this year, so stay tuned for further details.
The Nike SB Dunk High “Gucci” will be available towards the end of the year at selected Nike SB stockists across the region.
