Nike Dunk High – Obsidian/Sail/Orange
Last week we showed you the Nike Dunk High – Black/Sail/Orange which consisted of a pattern which we mentioned resembled the Zubaz pants from the 80s. Now thanks to FootLocker we have some shots of another pair of Dunks featuring the same pattern, this time in a obsidian/sail/orange color scheme.
This pair switches it up from the other Dunks with a much brighter design. As you may remember the previously posted design used obsidian as a base for the pattern and used orange as highlights. They also had a black mid-sole. This pair brightens things up quite a bit with an orange base used for the pattern throughout the upper with a white mid-sole. The nylon mesh on the toe-box and mid-panels is now obsidian which is a tad bit lighter then the pure black used on the other pair.
Watch for these Nike Dunks to release next year in February 2010 at select House of Hoops and Footlocker retailers. Click here to check out more detailed pictures of the sneakers.
Nike Dunk ‘Good Yankee Gone Badass’ Customs
Sneaker customizer Eye Candy presents use with a look at his latest custom sneakers dubbed the ‘Good Yankee Gone Badass’ Nike Dunks. Eye Candy designed the Dunk High with a colorway inspired by the Yankees Away jersey to create a clean and classy set of colors to work with. The number 26, which stands for the number of World Championships the Yankees have won, is included on the tongue tag of the sneakers in an interesting effect. The design is done with a staggered tile effect to symbolize the 26 being deleted to make way for the 27th victory to come. The digital camo side panels on the upper is added to add depth to the grey scale colorway and add an Eye Candy feel to these. The baseball stitch print ties the sneaker together, bridging the gap between the Yankees and Eye Candy Custom.
A few extra details worked into the sneakers is 1 of 1 on the back along with the customers name “Kevin” inside a city skyline. Theres also a skull and crossbats logo on the upper. For more detailed pictures of the Nike Dunk ‘Good Yankee Gone Badass’ customs click here now.

The Making Of: Prison Blues Nike Dunks
Not all that long ago we featured the Prison Blues Nike Dunks, the latest custom sneakers designed by the very talented SBTG. The web was buzzin over the design when pictures surfaced online, as they usually do with anything that comes from SBTG. The designing of the Prison Blues Nike Dunks featured individually hand-screened graphics and only the best premium grade selvedge denim available on the market.
SBTG has given us a look at the process it took to design the Prison Blues Nike Dunks in a couple of photos. The pictures display various co-workers screen painting the graphics, cutting out the designs and measuring and stretching out denim to cut for each of the Dunks. The process is defiantly time consuming but the final outcome is always well worth the work in the end.
