Nike SB ICON x ICON Pack and Quickstrikes Available Saturday, June 12th

The long awaited ICON x ICON Pack and June Quickstrikes from Nike SB will be available on Saturday, June 12th at 11:00 am.

The ICON x ICON Custom Series features two shoes specially modified by Pro Skaters Eric Koston and Brian Anderson:

First up in the ICON Custom Series, Eric Koston took the Dunk Low (Blue Ribbon/ Metallic Vegas Gold/ Varsity Red) and added a memory foam collar and heel locks, extra lace protection, and a softer gum rubber outsole to improve the shoes skate performance. The colorway takes it’s inspiration from the flag of Koston’s native Thailand.

Koston’s Quickstrike has been dubbed the “Thai Temple” Dunk High (Metallic Gold/ Metallic Vegas Gold/ Team Red) and the colorway is another tribute to his Thai heritage. It features metallic gold and red accents reminiscent of the colors found in Thai Temples.

Next, Brian Anderson redesigned the Blazer from the ground up for his ICON x ICON Custom Series– chopping it down to a mid top design and adding a cup sole for added durability. The result is the Blazer CS (Black/ Orange Blaze) available in a SF Giants- inspired black suede with an orange swoosh.

Finally, BA’s Quickstrike takes a nautical spin with the “Captain” Blazer CS (Midnight Navy/ Varsity Maize) featuring a midnight navy upper and an extra thick embroidered yellow Nike Swoosh reminiscent of the stitching on a Navy Captains hat.

The Southern USA’s Sneaker Scene: As Told By Its Biggest Players

The European Sneaker and Streetwear Blog EUKicks.com recently featured Black Sheep in an article entitled, The Southern USA’s Sneaker Scene: As Told By Its Biggest Players.

The article delves into the intricacies and unique flavor of the Southern Sneaker Scene and also features commentary from two prominent ATL spots, Wish as well as our homies over at Standard. It’s pretty wild to think that people across the big pond are interested in what’s going on in the Dirty South, so I guess that means we’re doing something right. Thanks to EUkicks for including us in the piece.
