HOLIDAY PICK-UP #1: NIKE SB PREMIUM DUNK "BROOKLYN PROJECTS"

(ALL PHOTOS PROPERTY OF NIKE)

This past week, I had to hear the sad news that my local skate shop (Laguna Surf and Sport) was going out of business. LS&S was the local spot in Aliso Viejo for people to go get their gear for their boards as well as new threads to rock while they skated. 

It was also a prime location to pick up the latest releases when it came to skate shoes. It was super low-key so it was easy to grab a pair of the latest NIKE release. 

With the shop going out of business, ALL of their footwear was 50% of and there was no way I was missing this one. As a Christmas present, my mom went up to the shop while I was with my brother and bought us all Dunks for Christmas. This was one of two pair that she got for me.

This collaboration between Nike SB and Los Angeles skate shop Brooklyn Projects was inspired by the glitz and glamour of Hollywood. The thick red collar lining represents the red velvet ropes that separate celebrity from us regular randos. The black buttery suede upper alludes to camera bodies and features a series of reflective flash bulb graphics that add a sweet touch to the sneaker.
