The Nike Dunk High Premium SB "Marshall Amp" (Black / Metallic Gold) takes its inspiration from the vintage Marshall Amp. Marshall Amplification is a British company which designs and manufactures music amplifiers. Marshall amplifiers are well known and highly popular among guitarists. The sight and sound of a Marshall stack amp with a Gibson Les Paul or a Fender Stratocaster is an iconic image in pop culture. Marshall amps were originally built as direct copies of Fender amplifiers, but soon incorporated certain traits which made them more favorable to guitarists seeking a heavier sound. These Nike Dunk SB "Marshall Amp" feature a black leather upper with mesh toe box and quarter panels, along with gold accents, a metallic gold swoosh and contrast stitching.

The Nike Dunk Low Pro SB "Crimson" white / varsity crimson (Orange Holland Dunk) features a white and crimson red colorway, hence the nickname. It is a simple design, and was not hyped up at all for its release. It does hold some importance though, as it was the first of the Nike Dunk SB’s to be ever be manufactured in Indonesia. The back heel tab is orange, and because of that, some people tried to dub it the Orange Holland Dunk, but it was never picked up.

Designed by The Greek, the Bics are a simple colorway consisting of black suede and yellow and white leather. The shoes got their name because of their resemblance to the Bic company logo. If you haven’t heard of the brand, Bic is known for their razor and pen products; a somewhat odd combination. The shoe is nicely complemented by a few grey accents to make an overall nice colorway.

The Nike Dunk High Pro SB "Pee Wee Herman" (Fallen Heroes Pack) grey / heather came to the scene with the inspiration of Pee Wee’s Playhouse.

The color-way resembles Pee Wee’s famous grey suit with a red bow tie. The insole ironically features Pee Wee sitting all alone in a movie theater.

Nothing can turn up the heat on a Dunk SB model quite like a great back story and the Wet Floor Dunk certainly has that going for it. Nike campus custodian, Ian Williams, was lucky enough to talk Nike SB into letting him design a Custodian Pack based on some every day janitorial influences. Unfortunately only one of the three models that were designed was selected for production, but that’s still one more shoe than most of us will ever get to design. Support Ian and custodians everywhere with a fresh pair of Wet Floor Dunks.

The Nike Dunk High Pro SB "Big Gulp" feature a unique inspiration. When they originally surfaced, many thought about nicknaming them the Coca Colas and the Santa Clause. But since the debate was never settled, Paul Rodriguez’s store Primitive has dubbed them the Nike Dunk SB "Big Gulp" after the famous 7-11 cup size. They feature a predominantly red upper constructed from suede and leather, along with perforations on the quarter panels and toe box for ventilation. The green shoe laces are reminiscent of the green accents used on the Big Gulp cup. They also have a Brown lining just like the Coca Cola inside the Big Gulp.

Nike SB will be getting in on the fun with this spooky edition of the SB Blazer High. As you can see, the shoe sports a White suede/canvas upper that has been badly “stained” by a gory blood splattered design. Additional accents are provided by a Grey suede Swoosh and Grey toe cap as well as some more touches of Red on the tongue label, heel tab and lining, but let’s be honest that it’s hard to notice anything but the blood graphics on the upper. Even though these might look like the aftermath of a skate session gone horribly wrong, they manage to still pull off a fresh look.

Nike Skateboarding is always coming up with new inspirations for colorways, especially on the Dunk. This December 2009 Quickstrike was inspired by the famous instant noodles, Top Ramen. Everyone has had their experiences with the inexpensive noodles, but how does the packaging color work on the classic silhouette?
Like the packaging of the instant noodles, most of the Dunk Low is wrapped in orange. Brown and red accents are mixed onto the shoe in various places and speckles make their way on to the inner lining. Representing the noodles is a hemp-like material, which is also the reason for the “Un-hemp” nickname that has also been associated with these Dunks.

Will Nike ever run out of colorways and inspirations for the Dunk model? The answer is no. First off, this particular Dunk Low contains different dull shades of dark brown and olive green with minimal red accents in the form of the inner lining and midsole.

Other features include a splatter design on the heel panel, goldenrod details on the border of the tongue and Nike logo on the heel. The black toe box and swoosh also give the “Asparagus” a nice, contrasting look.

The Nike Dunk Low Pro SB "Gibson Guitar Case" Light British Tan / Metallic Gold took its design cues from nothing else than a vintage Gibson Guitar case. Although not an official collaboration among the Nike SB and Gibson Guitar, these are rather very creative design and marketing. The upper is a rich, aged brown leather with camel accents. Inside is the fuzzy pink plush just like the inside of the vintage case. To take things another step further the insoles of the final product have coins and crunched up dollar bills – two things one would commonly find in an opened Gibson guitar case sitting on the steps of the pawn shop.
