Nike SB’s skate shop-exclusive Orange Label linage has been a welcome project for the true skaters of the world; a project that enables priority access to skaters for pairs that bypass online sales, big-name retailers, and ultimately, the hype. Of course, this exclusivity only heightens the hype, and it’s new Nike SB Blazer Mid “Dark Russet” (and its accompanying Dunk Low) is no exception.
Already previewed a handful of times by both skaters and retailers on social media, the official Nike imagery for the pair has now surfaced, showing the premium thick-cut russet leather upper in all of its glory. It’s overlayed by striking sail Swooshes and is complemented by aged-look exposed foam tongues, as well as sail laces, and midsoles. It’s countered by a flash of black at the liners and is capped off by an evergreen light gum rubber outsole, and Nike SB’s Orange Label branding throughout.
Pairs of the Nike SB Dunk Low “Dark Russet” have already been arriving at select skate shops the world over, with many expected to release pairs this month, with some retailers in Asia listing up a December 4th drop. Locally, a lot does depend on logistics, so be sure to check your local store for details.
