Nike SB's Dunk High "Reverse Skunk" Is All But Confirmed
Highsnobiety aims to provide our readers with the latest updates in the sneaker world. However, we cannot verify the reliability of any unauthorized leaks or rumors unless this information is provided directly by the brands themselves.
Following our first look at what is presumably Nike SB’s annual 4/20 release, Familia Skateboard Shop has shared a video showcasing the sneaker in action. According to leak accounts, Nike will release the “Reverse Skunk” Nike SB Dunk High that flips the color blocking from 2010’s “Skunk” Dunk High.
The leaked product images show a predominantly purple, hairy suede upper with green detailing on the Swoosh, outsole, and tongue. The shoes are numbered through 420 on the outside of the heel, suggesting that this release will be highly limited.
Nike has a long history of dropping weed-inspired Dunks on April 20, and the “Skunk” Dunk High this year’s release seems to be modeled after is one of the most iconic — albeit most obvious — releases.
Rumors had indicated that a “Strawberry Cough” colorway was to be released as well this year, though that drop looks to have been postponed. With the product images having leaked and 4/20 now here, expect an official announcement soon.
