Jeff Staple and Alasdair Thomson have immortalized the Nike SB Dunk Low “Pigeon” with a stunning marble sculpture of the sought-after model.

Featuring luxe grey-white marbling, the piece includes all the detailing of the actual shoe, from the perforated toe box to the fat tongue, the outsole lining and the Staple Pigeon logo in an opulent shade of gold.

While the piece isn’t wearable, artist Blake Barash, who specializes in hand-painted sneakers, created a usable pair that replicates the characteristics of the marble sculpture. However, the artist mentioned that he has no intention of mass production as of writing.

The Nike SB Dunk Low “Pigeon” was made available on the Staple Pigeon online store but appears to already be sold out.
