Nike is re-vamping the dunk high sb, replaced the tongue on the dunk with sock liner from the Koston 3.

Sad time for Nike, the sample did not look pretty. Might even be photos found at Agenda.

wait what

how does that even work?
[close]

The liner of the Koston 3 is high since the shoe is low, the liner can't be seen with the dunk high, since it's a high top. The liner will replace the dunk high tongue.

I was just told about these samples, disgusted when I heard about. A classic shoe ruined, thanks to the suits at Nike, no real skater would approve of this move.

oh shit that's weird. did they take out all the padding in the collar too?
[close]

From what I have heard, no tongue at all. The tongue of dunk will be replaced by the sock liner like in the Koston 3, just imagine a dunk high with Koston 3 sock liner as the tongue.

idk, it sounds functional.

Functional or comfortable, it spits in the face of what the Dunk Hi stands for.

Koston FP's look dope!!

Also, about the Dunk Hi collar/tongue modification. That could be a great performance addiction to the shoe if they just slimmed down the collar and tongue fat and added a knit sock linner like Koston's. That way you feet would be highly secure and the traditional look would remain because the sock is hidden. But they will look like shit if it is like Tate says.

They're just adding more sport like features from other sport into their skate shoes to further associate skateboarding as a sport and take away the remaining individuality that skateboarding still has.

idk im pretty sure a lot of people like both soccer and skateboarding, me included, so i think these are all really sick. i don't even mind the price tags. lets be real, we all buy skate shoes that we won't skate in and won't ruin immediately, so for the life these are going to give me and how clean they are, its not so bad.

Agreed on both posts. They look great and honestly I plan to buy those Koston when they drop next week. My own small complaint is that I wish they picked a different color than black.

After all this shit on the recent months I can't justify to buy nike sb again. Until now I was pleased with the quality of their products, but now nike sb is getting so wack that the quality doesn't justify the bullshit they are doing.
It's like if osiris made quality products, would people buy their shit? No, quality don't always justify the amount of terrible decisions they are making.

Not posting a new shoe, but looking for a bit of help. I bought a pair of Janoski Max in Obsidian Blue for chilling in and I've noticed a problem with the leather in the left shoe (see the photos below). After just an hour of wear the colour seems to be coming out of the leather and the texture around the detail sticking appears to be beginning to flake. I wouldn't be bothered if this was a shoe I was skating, but it sucks that the left foot is getting tiger stripes after such little wear.

Has anyone else had similar problems with this shoe or other SB models? If so, did you manage to get it sorted by Nike? If anyone has an email of someone at Nike SB or there are some Nike staff lurking here, please could you PM me. I'd be really grateful.

If it's a defect (looks like it). Go to the skate shop you bought it from, they can probably get you a new pair, and they can get credit back from Nike.

Or if you bought from Nike Online, you can file a claim and get a voucher, but that takes like 3 weeks to get in the mail.

But the claim has to be inspected by Nike and approved, but you have to pay for shipping. If they don't accept it, I think they send your shoes back to you.

Thanks Tate. Unfortunately, I bought them online from the UK as my local shop in Finland didn't have the colorway/size I was after. Living in the arse-end-of-nowhere Finland means that local Nike SB accounts don't always carry a wide variety of shoes.

I contacted the seller and have now received an email from them. It took them a couple of days to reply, but they have asked me to return them by tracked post (which is going to cost me fuck load of money). They said pretty much what you said - they'll inspect them and refund/replace.

It looks, however, like I'm going to have write the postage off as a loss. This sucks as I thought Nike would have better quality control given their resources.

For anyone looking for Dunk Lows or Highs, almost exclusively the original styles (pertaining to the tongues, etc,) and many of they Weiger coloroways, look no further:

Home Base Skateshop
Bethlehem, Pa, 18015
610-866-0540
[email protected]

They will send you a list if you'd fancy. They have a ton of dunk lows, even mid, and certainly highs. I worked there for years, and can tell you for a fact that they have a ton of Nike sb dunks and originals you guys are probably looking for. Tell them Bill told you to call.

Just because it says SB doesn't mean it's a skateable shoe. Many 'skateboarding' brands (i.e. Adidas Skateboarding, Globe, Etnies, Vans, etc.) are doing non-skate models too. Why would Nike SB be any different? Companies see a way to sell more shoes and they will. I bought these Janoski Max shoes because they're fucking comfortable and can be worn when I'm at work. (That's what those of use with mortgages, families and real resposibilities do instead of living in our parent's basements!)

Do you own a pair of running shoes that you don't run in? What about a pair of basketball sneakers? Would you only wear them on the court? And hiking boots? God forbid you'd wear them when you return from the wilderness!

By the way, all of the similes you use are pointless. They'd work if I bought these sneakers to leave in the box in order to add them to some pathetic collection. If they're being worn, they're fulfilling their purpose. Pretty fucking simple really.

1. i was just fucking with you damn you people are so serious.

2. my point is that if you buy an emerica chiller youre still supporting a core skate brand. a lot of us only buy nike sb shit because we have to more or less (they make good shoes), we would never buy anything else from nike, like tshirts and shit, that would be supporting nike without getting something that we cant get from a core brand. spend your money however the fuck you want, but theres no denying that the last thing nike and adidas need is more money. it wouldnt exactly be a huge loss if corporate companies disapeared.
