After a few previews and a gifting tease to Kyrie Irving, the next Concepts x Nike SB Dunk Low “Purple Lobster” is now confirmed, with a release date just around the corner.

The illusive “Purple” edition follows the footsteps of the previous quickstrike colors — red, blue, and yellow. Similarly, the purple has SB padding around its lining and ankle, and details across the upper like lacquered splatter and stacked Swooshes. Inside the shoe, a picnic table-esque print gives the sneaker a bit of contrast from outside inward. Lastly, the novel claw-strap finishes off the next iteration of one of the cleanest, most thematic SB collaborations ever.

Concepts has revealed the official release date to be December 14 at the Concepts Cambridge, New York, Dubai, and Shanghai stores, and online. Besides Nike, Concepts also executed a collaboration with outerwear company Canada Goose.
