Before we promised to give you a better look at “The Paramount” dunk, so here is the follow-up. Striving to make a dressy-looking dunk, SBTG and Lazy cleverly use black, Gucci selvage denim to cover the upper and leave a red/green lining along the mid-sole. It also features a snake skin Swoosh and a white bottom sole with black stitching. This pair of Dunks is truly a masterpiece with all the right textural details and color combination.
Two outstanding and talented customizers in their own right have come together, as Lazy and SBTG have been working together on “The Paramount” Dunk. The use of denim suits Lazy’s style which has seen previous customs also utilizing denim. From the previews, “The Paramount” features Gucci-esque selvedge denim with a black leather toebox. Stay tuned for a full look.
