We just mentioned Todd Bratrud’s ‘Cheech and Chong’ Dunk High SB from last spring in reference to the upcoming ‘Bonsai’ Stefan Janoskis, but this model pictured above has it all over that pair when it comes to  drama surrounding its release .  The  Entourage x Nike SB Dunk Low Premium ‘Lights Out’  has managed to outlive the hit HBO series, and with more delays and confusion than possibly any other single shoe in history, we wouldn’t blame you for being skeptical about new word of an eventual retail release.  But that’s exactly what just happened when Northampton, Mass’  Unite  reported that they’ll have a Quickstrike release in March or April of this year, just about a year after the ‘ Entourage ’ LeBron 8 V/2s dropped in 2011.

Never content to just slap some paint on a sneaker and call it a custom, Sharp020 has proven his acumen again and again via a slick skill set of embroidery and sew-work . Take his latest creation, this minty fresh pair with a cool sunburst array of lines radiating out from the side swoosh. The inside gets quite the upgrade as well, featuring a soft quilted look that is generally reserved for top-tier Supreme collabos.

There’ve been a few standout  Nike SB Dunk Lows  previewed here on Sneaker News in recent weeks, and one thing they all have in common is a connection to a previous notable release. The connection is quite obvious when you look at Pushead’s latest Dunk SB collaboration and the upcoming ‘Shrimp’ edition offers a different twist on crustacean inspiration than CNCPTS’ ‘Lobster’ series just as the above pictured pair utilizes the still rare yet  familiar woodgrain texture . They offer a strikingly similar blocking pattern as compared to last February’s Obsidian edition, but achieve a more festive look that’s not too far from what you might expect in a few months for Cinco de Mayo

The phrase ‘shrimp on the barbie’ is one thrown around to make reference to anything from ‘Down Under’, so perhaps this upcoming Quickstrike release of the Nike SB Dunk Low has some sort of Australian theme to it?

While diffcult for hardcore enthusiasts to admit, Nike SB has clearly lost its luster over the last few years. Some point to 2006 as being the final year of true relevance and excitement for Nike Skateboarding’s Dunk releases, with the Pushead being one of the last few heavy-hitters before the sub-label went on a prolonged slump. Designed by famed street-artist Pushead, the late 2005 release of the Pushead x Nike SB Dunk Low featured his signature artwork in album covers and skate decks is considered to be one of greatest of the entire series thanks to it’s mind-blowing colorway, weaved inner lining, and special edition box.

Usually April is a month that Nike SB sets aside to pay tribute to a different adult substance , but it appears that you’ll be able to party extra hard for 2012 with the Nike SB Dunk Low ‘Crown Royal’ . As the classier segment of our of-age readers no doubt know, the colorway gets it look from the velvet bag that the Canadian whiskey comes packaged in. Dipped in a deep purple suede, the upper also comes with some regal looking gold accents to complete the look

There was a time when wearing white after Labor Day was a no-no, just as was mixing navy blue with black.  But with more and more people wearing dark rinse denims as upscale casual attire, they’re being paired with black shoes with greater frequency by the day

It’s not even Christmas yet (we know that because the Air Jordan XI Retro ‘Concord’ is still awaiting its early morning mass mobs lineups), and already select Nike SB retailers are starting to get their January 2012 footwear in stock.  Let’s start with a  Nike SB Dunk Low  in a bold mix of navy blue, black and gold whose basketball-like pebbled underlay makes these even more of a reminder of Michigan’s Nike days.

Nike Skateboarding had one helluva year in 2011, introducing the Nike SB Zoom Koston One to the pro-model line-up while continuing the heritage of the SB Dunk. The success experienced by Nike SB this year will only mean higher expectations for 2012, and based on this nice 2012 footwear preview provided by Dom Deluca of Brooklyn Projects, it appears that the bar will be met

At this point Nike SB has a list of hot sneakers that reads like a set of nicknames at a group home: Wino , Heineken , and Skunk to name a few. It looks like their subtle tributes to illicit behaviors will carry on in 2012 with the above pictured ‘Crown Royal’ colorway, a sneaker that first popped up in our massive 2012 preview for the Nike SB Dunk Low
