Today Japan has received an early release of the nicknamed “Asparagus” Dunk SB, which is scheduled for the rest of the world as part of Nike SB’s September 2009 range. The colorway is very autumnal with a brown wing, black leather toe box and red accents to complete. Perhaps the most striking feature of this release however, are the rough suede grass-green side-panels and speckled ankle parts. Get your Asparagus fill now from LTD.

    SMH the sneaker is ugly
    Take that money and go buy some Ray Bans

    & for all those who are here dropping names of sneakers, i bet i own twice as many pairs of NSB’s as you …

    My SN is “NiKEScashGiiRLS” if you feel you have more NSB’s then me put up bread

    & another thing, this is 09, if your just now getting on the NSB wave your a lame … If you dont own atleast a few pairs of Orginal Jordans your a lame … Half of you guys are on here bitching when your the type of guy i laugh at when im out with my girl swaggin

    = D

    Maybe if any of you idiots would pay attention you wold realize that when Hypebeast presents the new monthly collection of SB’s, they tend to present the dunk with a thinner tongue. Too bad all you haters just sit on your Macbooks and blog all day and aren’t out actually seeing these kicks in person, or furthermore, dropping some cash.

    Aw Man, Nike Sb’s Are So Played Out, And Theses Joints Are So Ugly!

  22. Posted by:mr. E on August 7, 2009 at 10:40 pm

    one thing i do like about the new sb dunk lows…is that the lace panel is spaced more far apart…not we just need fat tongues AND the wider lace panels…together hahaha

  23. Posted by:keovar on August 7, 2009 at 9:34 pm

    they do look like f.cking refael’s and i love the thin tongue.

  24. Posted by:Ren on August 7, 2009 at 9:24 pm

    Damn these are UGLY!! Being nicknamed “Asparagus” doesn’t help…lol

  31. Posted by:mrr3no on August 7, 2009 at 5:44 pm

    haha what a joke, if Nike dumped their SB line today I wouldnt even bat an eyelash.

  32. Posted by:Zel on August 7, 2009 at 5:24 pm

  33. Posted by:ClarkKent on August 7, 2009 at 5:22 pm

  34. Posted by:Mike on August 7, 2009 at 5:03 pm

    damn this is just one reason i gave up on SB’s

  35. Posted by:Slow Down on August 7, 2009 at 4:17 pm

    I never thought I’d say this, but give it up Nike SB. You guys have been sucking ass for the past few years. I was hoping for a strong comeback, but it’s just disappointment after disappointment each month.

    What happened to that strong run with the Futuras, Takeshis, UNKLEs, Wheat highs, Chocolates, Zoos, Hufs, Sharks, man. The past couple of years have been disasterous over there.
