Here are some more info regarding to the SBTG (or Sabotage) and Nike SB collaborated Dunk Low release. The shoes will be released in Singapore on July 22nd and rumor has it that they will be also hitting places like Australia , Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan and maybe Indonesia in mid August.
SB for sure, It comes with a regular SB box with my vine camou design printed on the tissue. Well the reason is to have a saturated designed shoe to protect myself from customising it further in terms of print placement and material selection.
