Nike Dunk High x Kobe Bryant x SBTG “Varsity Bones”

Shoe customizer SBTG has worked with Nike on numerous occasions including the well known Nike SB SBTG Dunk Low. His seemingly endless imagination translated into a unique style which has brought him much success. With that being said, SBTG dwelled far into the depths of his imagination to complete a special 1 of 1 shoe for Kobe Bryant. The shoe examines the hypothetical realm and ponders the question, “What if Kobe didn’t make make the jump straight to the NBA and became a Blue Devil?” What resulted was a highly detailed Nike Dunk High with a pre-yellowed midsole, discontinuity on each shoe’s midpanels, which are then embossed with Kobe’s signature Shozoko logos. The box itself is a separate work of art which is composed of a laser detailed wooden frame and a plexiglass cover. The climax of SBTG’s work came when SBTG presented Kobe with the custom “Varsity Bones” along a stop of Kobe’s Asia tour.
