Taking cues from the original Gino Iannucci series, Nike SB offers a new dunk low pairing Obsidian/Grey suede with Black perforated Leather and mesh. A White midsole and detailing tie the design together, wrapped as a present, and ready to be purchased by the SB faithful, although there’s still no indicator that the stuffed tongue from season’s past will ever reemerge. Available now through Kasina and other select Nike SB retail accounts.

    These are decent shoes I used to skate so I understand the whole fat tongue is a must but since I’m not skating anymore I’m not going to come up and start complaining about a skinny tongue na forget that noise overall these are decent shoes either u like em or u don’t yo don’t be a lame just complaining about a fat tongue just so u can lace em up 5 holes high than use the fat tongue so hold ur big pants half way down ur ass poser lames

    Heres the tongue deal. dunks are either dunks or SB dunks (two different types). dunks no fat tongue on account that they are not for skateboarding and protection from a skateboard. SB dunks have the thick tongue for skateboarding. So when you say “I hate SB dunks with the skinny tongue or w/o the fat tongue” there is not such thing, they’re just normal useless dunks not SB dunks. Your welcome

    Best ones that have come out in a long time. None of that overly flashy bullshit.

    Nike 6.0 fucked up the nike sb game to me because whenever i see a colorway all i can think of is how they look like 6.0’s. I sure as shit dont wanna spend like 75-80 bucks on a pair of wack ass 6.0 lookin numbers

    i love how the people who don’t skate dunks cry about the tongue size.

    if you DID skate dunks SB’s, then you’d agree that they sucked. dont get me wrong. they saved the tops of my feet various times. But slim is in, and the rest of the team is pushing these changes. Not the hypebeast teenagers who have to have gigantor tongues to hold up there baggy ass selvage denim. f that noise.

    finally a pair of none hyped out dunks. thanks you nike!

    Its funny how people are like “low sbs are wack without the fat toungue” or “i hate f’in skinny tongues!” When in reality, they are now just dunks. do you guys hate dunks? The only thing sb about em now is the tongue tag and the insole.

    Dont get me wrong, i love the fat tongue but come on… these are sick sneakers, no ifs ands or buts.

    nike is smart, looking at all these comments, the fat tongues are gonna start to increase in price substantially on ebay and shit. either that or their going to stop making these skinny tongues soon and the same people that were hating on them are gonna be like “OMG i gotta get me a pair of skinny tongue dunk sbs! they were only making em for like 4 months, soooo cooll!”

    y’all know its true

    I don’t understand why people are so pissed about the tongue. The new SB tongues are still stuffed/fat, except the upper part of the tongue is stitched across. You still get the padded support from the fat tongue except this time lest bulky on your foot. I bet most of those who want the fat tongue back probably don’t even skate. You like the fat tongue because you feel it sets SB apart from the rest of Nike’s lines. The thinned out upper of the tongue is supposed to be more functional and less bulky. As for the color, i’ve seen the sample in person. These are dope. Clean and simple and ready to be shredded and not adored by hype enthusiasts. One.

    so phucking lame, and plain as hell. Plus the thin tongue make this pair of shoes look like gnr. I don’t see a point buying this pair of shoes at the sb store than footlocker. Where all of the good designers go?

  13. Posted by: Mike on October 18, 2009 at 11:39 pm
