Just make a black an white dunk again that can be bought year round so people can actually skate good looking dunks and not have to pay a fortune to get em.
theyre coming out with a griptape mid ISO that looks like the same material they used for the Griffey ISO which is super durable. Ive had fortunate luck with getting dunks but its nearly impossible and we joke about it at the park. All the best skaters cant get them haha XD I think these mids will be obtainable tho if you act quick. remind of of the griptape mids i skated in 08 and were easy to get
I wish they’d just do a simple all black upper with a white sole and swoosh and make it available year round so people didn’t have to spend hundreds to get a pair to skate. I’ve always wanted to skate a pair but never was able to cause they sell such small quantities
@@blakehall3861 If you ever read the history of Nike SB it was about limited releases and I'm ok with that. I have only been able to touch GRs this year with the excetion of the Chunky Dunky
Eat MaCaughck I’m sick of it man, it’s been a whole year since I got some dunks, and less than 3 years ago I was getting them for $15-50 at my local and skated them also, smh resellers suck and Nike needs to make more shoes 😂
Sam Roble i mean im pretty sure, at least if you get good ones. like i dont even worry abt if they look correct just as ling as they are made if good material
we all want a piece of memorabilia and to have deadhead bling. if nike is going to make it happen thats awesome, just shows how huge the dead are still to this day..
if you’re really desperate. you can buy fake dunks they’re basically made of the same material just the zoom units feel different but you can swap them out
If you really do want to skate, Imo, dunks are not really top-notch enough that a pro skater would rank it no.1. They are so hyped up because of their silhouette, leaning towards lifestyle. Nike SB lineup has a lot more to offer, like the Janoskis, team classic, etc.
That's why I love these edits. These shoes are being used for what they're meant for. They shouldn't be inaccessible due to greedy, sweaty resellers who don't even skate marking up the price of these shoes.
People can say what they want, but last year the resurgence of the SB’s are what got me into skateboarding after I bought my first pair last October, and these have brought together two great communities, and has allowed me to find a band I really enjoy. Shoutout to all the deadheads and the skaters, and even the resellers, love to all!
Ive been collecting SBs and skating and destroying them since 05', finally started collecting sb dunks again this year and not skating them, and it's nearly impossible to get something like this. I feel extremely lucky to have won a raffle at Labor Skateshop and been able to purchase my yellow pair! Amazing work Nike SB
@@andrewirazaba I still have them! theyre in their box rn with the special stickers they came. I've kept them like new but I wear them on occasion in my apartment. The only negative thing that's happened is the sun has faded the box I left in my apartment but I love them they're the gem of my collection even today. They remind me of the baby bear sb dunks I missed out on in high school around 2006.
This shoe means a lot to me, my uncle died who I was really close to and loved the Grateful Dead hopefully I can get a pair of these shoes so one of the things he loved and I love and can have in one thing
Its fucked up cause Nike want to go the hypebeast route and do "drops" for the excuse to charge more. Of all things too i wouldnt have expected GD to collab with Nike, just seems so forced and contradictive to what the dead stood for. Im gonna guess that 95% of the people who get these shoes dont give a fuck about the GD which i feel is super corny. I dont listen to em so idc really bout gettin the shoes but i feel for the real fans out there that cant get these at msrp.
Nike doesn't fit with the Grateful Dead's hippy sensibilities. These shoes are just going to be resold by collectors, neither skaters nor Dead fans will get them. We're going through a global pandemic. What's the point in making this junk?
Just because there’s a pandemic doesn’t mean you can’t do anything. Stuff still has to go on. These are dope ass shoes and some good skatin clips :) just sit and enjoy and now if you ever see someone skating those shoes you’ll be like damn that’s cool
I second that. The shoes should go to SKATERS first and DEAD HEADS second. 90% of the people I know that want the sneakers don’t even like the Grateful Dead
More people will listen to the dead , hell if I had those shoes the smartest thing to do would be to get the 4 digit check... I could always buy some custom fan made pair of jordans and do bmx in them after that
Killer video! Elissa ripping! I've seen 25 Dead and Co. shows since these shoes came out and I have not seen one single Dead Head wearing a pair. I bet they feel killer to skate in though! -Nordy
wilton chamberlain you do realize there are Grateful Dead members that are dead that didn’t have any part of this collaboration with Nike. Jerry Garcia didn’t approve of this and he’s a BIG PART of the band.
Dear nike sb, Please make sbs available in higher quantities to more skate shops like 2008/2007. I miss being able to walk inside my local shop and get a pair. I want these so bad but I highly doubt I will be able to get them :(
Been wearing and skating dunks since about 2012 and it is now impossible to get them. My local shop gets like 7 pairs and they all go to resellers, and my college shop was dropped by Nike. Come on, I want to see the shops make money not resellers, make more shoes or do something about resellers

I mean i use dkl griptape so my dunks dont wear
You should try those rubber griptapes like i do they dont ruin you shoes at all i haven't changed my shoes for 4 months now
fax
or make icy dunks with a large amount of stock like they do with every other shoe
elissa steamer ripping in 2020 makes me happy
Still going strong
She’s a Goddess
Fucking sick
Best and only thing that matter on this video
And she's on with Nike? You know you took care of with them
I really wish sb dunks were more readily available. I miss actually skating in them
I wish they’d just do a simple all black upper with a white sole and swoosh and make it available year round so people didn’t have to spend hundreds to get a pair to skate. I’ve always wanted to skate a pair but never was able to cause they sell such small quantities
Blake Hall same
@@blakehall3861 If you ever read the history of Nike SB it was about limited releases and I'm ok with that. I have only been able to touch GRs this year with the excetion of the Chunky Dunky
Me too. All these limited editions are making it hard to get a pair to skate in.
@@blakehall3861 if you've "always" wanted to skate a pair they were cheap less than a year ago before the hype. Come on
too bad that those shoes will probably barely ever get skated. i guess 90% of the shoes go to people who make money reselling sneakers
never even had the chance to skate dunks because all the hypebeast resellers get to em first
@@ikaikaonalani17 skate fakes lmao, i do it and if theyre good fakes the feel just like the real ones

Achoo! Do fa,es hold up as good as the Nike’s
Sam Roble i mean im pretty sure, at least if you get good ones. like i dont even worry abt if they look correct just as ling as they are made if good material
As a skater, I love this vid. As a sneaker head, I want to die inside.
Real shit.
I love the Grateful Dead, that being said Nike was the last corporation I expected them to work with even if Jerry is gone
Hervard Buond yea, Jerry’s boys sold out
Jer rocked Nike Air Max. Ain't too far of a stretch to think he would have been fine with it.
That's nothing. I've seen Grateful Dead soap... Now that is a sell out
Most heads on dead forums have already stated they don’t support this move. Many have a strong dislike for Nike.
we all want a piece of memorabilia and to have deadhead bling. if nike is going to make it happen thats awesome, just shows how huge the dead are still to this day..
Elissa steamer and the grateful dead!!!!!!!!!!! HEAVEN
So glad Grateful Dead is hitting the skate scene, used to listen to Terrapin Station while cruising spot to spot
That’s their best project
Why can’t they just make dunks that skaters can actually buy for retail
if you’re really desperate. you can buy fake dunks they’re basically made of the same material just the zoom units feel different but you can swap them out
Because real skaters dont believe the hype. They just skate for fun. Not for the hype.

@@ABYeqaL11 I love the look of dunks and tbh rep dunks is all I’ve been skating
@@captaindisabled8378 were can i cop a pair of rep dunks?? that arent completely shit i searched /reps but i havent found any good sellers
All The pants in this vid are beautiful
That firecracker near the end was insane
I think green is very stylish

Bruh the beefy shoes and baggy close are the sickest style 🔥🔥🔥
I know dude it’s soooooo sickkkkkk!!!! 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎🤴🤴🤴😎🤴😎😎😎
It is only a style for hipsters ...

"Big ollie sad...,PERFECT!!!!!!"

I feel extremely lucky to have won a raffle at Labor Skateshop and been able to purchase my yellow pair! Amazing work Nike SB
Update on the shoes? What ended happening to them?

this is the kind of collab I needed this morning
So glad to see someone actually skatiimg these
Wish these weren't so hard to get. Want the yellow ones so bad 😩🥺
Cumberland Blues❤️
This whole video is just a vibe
Work and Skated, just as its purposed!!!
You end with Elissa Steamer. Perfect ending.
I love to see a dunk sb used for skate
Gotta love it, gotta fucken love it .
This shoe means a lot to me, my uncle died who I was really close to and loved the Grateful Dead hopefully I can get a pair of these shoes so one of the things he loved and I love and can have in one thing

If your ever want a pair of the orange ones I have an authentic pair I’ve worn 4 times. Never skated in them tho.

Production based on contractual slavery.
They all are bad news.
More people will listen to the dead , hell if I had those shoes the smartest thing to do would be to get the 4 digit check... I could always buy some custom fan made pair of jordans and do bmx in them after that
pandemic is fake news
Skating grails love it!!!!
pedrooooooo ❤️❤️
Really need these
Killer video! Elissa ripping! I've seen 25 Dead and Co. shows since these shoes came out and I have not seen one single Dead Head wearing a pair. I bet they feel killer to skate in though! -Nordy
Yeaahhhh adidas!!!!! Wooooop!!!!
bring em back!
and use a real dead lightning bolt design
I love how Nike still does ADs like this but in reality, 99% of the pair went on the resell market
So sick.
just come out wth some dunks that can be bought year round
I need these so bad
Screw Nike. That company couldn't be further from what the dead's about or deadheads.
Do they even realize that's the tune about being a corporate wage slave? "a lotta poor man got to walk that swoosh, just to pay his..."
Amen
You realize Nike probably had to pay the Grateful Dead for their likeliness... so they agreed to the colab
wilton chamberlain you do realize there are Grateful Dead members that are dead that didn’t have any part of this collaboration with Nike. Jerry Garcia didn’t approve of this and he’s a BIG PART of the band.
whoever writes their copy ain't a real head: we all know its #weireverywhere
Rip jerry
Yup
1:26
The guy go down the stairs
The shoe: "ight im outta here"
This is sick
This is soo cool!
Do a rerelease in October in a bunch skate shops cause I would love to skate these in October
I feel like everybody at the end shoulda chilled out for that trick. It was dope
I wish I could get them but I live in Texas
Need the orange pair son fkn bad
I NEED A MIRACLE KICKFLIP
after wathcing this video I like all versions lol
So faya!!
I don't like these shoes, but it makes me so happy to see all those people cheering gleefully at 1:22. :)
Sick🔥
a Argentina que lleguen por dios
I need those yellow shitz
skateboard fashion has not changed since the 90s
Everything about this is amazing. Love is real and not fade away !! {|}:}
pedro need a part ¡¡
i miss being able to just buy nike SB dunk, like the hypebeast and resellers are killing it.
Sneaker heads are crying seeing those shoes being skated in.
Sick
Miss the vx days
I have been to 10 concerts
I want any of these colorways... especially the 🍊
Dear nike sb, Please make sbs available in higher quantities to more skate shops like 2008/2007. I miss being able to walk inside my local shop and get a pair. I want these so bad but I highly doubt I will be able to get them :(
man this fire cracker was dpy heavy
Are you able to order these shoes? Or do you have to pickem up at da store?
that they come to Argentina please
Hey Nike can I please have a pair of those 🥺
Nice
To bad we dont have anymore skate shops close to me to get a in store drop. So disappointed closet one is over a hour away from.
welcome to japan
can we stop acting like the grateful dead makes good music
Would love to skate a pair of those but Hypebeasts already sold them out smh. Would love to skate in some dunks again
nice collar
where raffle in EU/US?
Should of said #weireverywhere
to all the people complaining about not being able to get dunks for retail, why not just buy reps ?
I'm reselling some
We are eaven on mars
And they can be yours for only $1500 on a resell website.
Make the Dead not cool again
It was way more fun then✌
very rare>>>>
Guess what Nike, sadly no one who actually skates won this shoe thanks a lot
they should really realease plain dunks that are avalible all year round so we don't need to pay resell for skate shoes.
I see the newest generation of skaters have ditched the skinny jeans. Oh 90's how I've missed you. Anyone remember dont label me?
👍👍👍
Anybody here know the 5 Letter key Word in the FTC #GreatfulDead Raffle??? PLEASE I NEED HELP
I want yellow they look soo good, if i get em, what I wont I will ride bmx in them.
should make people skate in a line before purchasing these... ive owned dunks for 16 years and as of recently only been able to not purchase them..
This was hard to watch after taking another L on snkrs for these this morning. Every time a hyped shoe drops the damn site crashes. Fix this Nike!!!!!
they don't care at all, aslong as they get paid, only way for them to care is if 80% of their consumers just stopped buying nikes
I don't know whether to smile cuz I like skating or to cringe so hard because im into resell
Where all my Sneakerheads at?
I can't believe these shoes are real. Dudes be looking like they just curb stomped cookie monster or sumthin
Song?
Who else thought it was Danny Duncan in the thumbnail
Am i the only dead head who actulley wanted thoes but couldnt because of the hypebeasts?
Been wearing and skating dunks since about 2012 and it is now impossible to get them. My local shop gets like 7 pairs and they all go to resellers, and my college shop was dropped by Nike. Come on, I want to see the shops make money not resellers, make more shoes or do something about resellers
The shops are the resellers twice though
Nosavez what? I’d rather see shops mark them up because I refuse to pay resellers and would rather support local
why it look like they all wearing shoes 10x to big for their feet? look like moon boots
Nice tricks, nice shoes 😅
