It’s always a natural fit for Nike SB to pay tribute to Hawaii. The home of surfing, which ultimately leads to the birth of skateboarding, has seen a handful of inspired colorways over the years, most notably on 2004’s “Aloha” collaboration with Kicks Hawaii. For this release — a 4/20 special — we see a more literal approach, with this Nike SB Dunk High “Hawaii” Ishod Wair x SB Dunk Low Pro 'Perfect Pink'.
First looks at the pair provided by @yankeekicks show a printed textile construction reminiscent of 1960s Hawaii shirts in hues of green, Golf yellow, and peach. The patterns engulf the entirety of the upper, enabling the hemp-like textile Checks and tongues to pop. In fact, the fabrication is eerily similar to the aforementioned Aloha Dunk Low — perhaps a cheeky nod to the Blazer collaboration, too. Liners, laces, and outsoles also arrive in a washed sand hue, while its midsoles revert to a classic white finish. Completing the design is a bright orange tongue tag, perhaps an indication of an Orange Label status.
