Nike Dunk Low "Black Mamba" x SBTG | Varsity Blues

Earlier this year Kobe Bryant was touring through Asia where he was warmly welcome. In Singapore Kobe was greeted by sneaker artist SBTG who created the Nike Dunk High "Black Mamba" as a 1 of 1 for the Lakers superstar.

SBTG has revisited the Nike Dunk with a Kobe theme, however this creation will be available to the public. The Nike Dunk Low comes in a black and purple colorway with a leopard print on the purple elements on the heel and collar. The side panel, which comes in black, subtly features Kobe's logo. The Kobe theme is reinforced with his number "24" on the right and "MVP" on the left, a reference to his NBA Final's MVP award.

The kicks are part of the Varsity Bones collection hand crafted by SBTG. The kicks are scheduled to release on the 16th of November 2009 at 10 AM E.S.T. for $600 at Royale Fam.

Varsity Bones "Prison Blues" Nike Dunks

In 2008 SBTG/Royalefam was sent an eight compartment box containing seven vintage college Nike Dunks in celebration of the "Year of the Dunk". It's easy mathematics to tell that one of the eight compartments was still empty. So SBTG decided to fill up that empty compartment with a dedication "...to those that play the game differently, dress different and refuse to conform to rules or tradition."

The "Prison Blues" is the first shoe in SBTGs Varsity Bones line, based on the fictitious prison basketball team of "Folsom Prison" (inspired by Johnny Cash's "Folsom Prison Blues"). There will be a Dunk Low and a Dunk High Version released on August 9th 2009 (10pm est).
Don't get it twisted - I don't want to sound corny but it's good to see that there are still people out there that care about the story behind a sneaker. SBTG and Roayalefam get an A+ for that. They did their homework...

The Varsity Bones Prison Blues is mostly made of premium denim, the swoosh has a "Folsom Prison Blues" lyrics print and the tongue has a zipper. Just to name a few details... awesome! Because of this and because there will only be 24 pairs for sale this sneaker will be an instant classic! Price: $650 for the high's, $550 for the low's.
