Nike SB Dunk Low “Grateful Dead” Pack Releasing July 24th

Inspired by the kings of Psychedelic Rock, the ever-clever Nike SB is launching a trio of Grateful Dead Nike SB Dunk Lows this July 24th on Nike SNKRS US and select skateshops. The green colorway of the Dunk Lows releases July 24th at Nike SNKRS US and select skateshops while the yellow pair is a skateshop exclusive, with each store deciding on their own release strategy. The orange pair will be the most limited of the pack releasing earlier on July 18th and exclusively at FTC Skate whose flagship location is in the Grateful Dead’s hometown of sunny San Francisco.

Built off the “Grateful Dead Bear” motif created by the band’s audio engineer – nicknamed Bear – the shoe’s feature an illustration of the bear on the shoe’s tongue with a small Nike Swoosh pictured behind him. The plush mesh, SB tongues are done in their respective pairs’ matching colors and are equipped with a hidden zipper pocket inside. Shoelaces match the shaggy, faux-fur material which adorns the medial and lateral sides as well as the toe box while the Angeles features the band’s red, white, and blue lightning bolt motif. While the paneling replicates the bear mascots’ fur, the Dunk Lows’ Swooshes are reinterpreted to mimic the Bears’ signature chest collars which are done in contrasting colors. To emulate this look, the Swooshes have shark tooth inlays in black added around the perimeter of the shoe. Embroidered “Nike” logos appear on the heel in a typeface akin to a classic Grateful Dead poster rather than the brand’s usual typography.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
