Patta x Nike Air Max 1 Premium

Patta is out in Amsterdamonce again working with Nike on a Nike Air Max 1 as part the celebration of the 5th Anniversary. This time they are using more of a basic colorblocking method using a white, what appears to be chlorophyll colored denim and a matte silver canvas palette. Patta tongue tag and footbed identify the release. The embroidered Swoosh near the toe is a good look as well. It also looks like the panel behind the swooh MAY be 3M or suede. Which is Crazy Either Way! Stay tuned for a Q4 2009 release.

Diamond Supply Co. x RESN "Lester Diamond" Tee

In 2004, Nike SB approached Girl Skateboards team manager/artist, Sam Smyth, to design a Nike SB Dunk for it’s Team Manager series. After tapping Nick Tershay of Diamond Supply Co., the duo created two designs. One color way which represented Red for Fire, Green for Weed & Black for “RESN”- Smyth’s moniker with the IBC Crew in San Francisco. And second, a Tiffany, silver and black color way, colors Tershay had already utilized in his Diamond Supply Co. line. Both designs were approved, but in July 2005 Nike SB, for unknown reasons, only released the Diamond Supply Co. SB Dunk.

Very few samples of the RESN SB Dunk were made available, which became prized possessions for collectors world wide. But next month, the highly anticipated shoe will be making its retail debut. Partnering with Diamond Supply Co, “RESN” designed a special-edition T-shirt emblazoned with the image of Casino’s Lester Diamond and his Gucci jacket with green and red epaulets to match the Dunk. [Lester DIAMOND rocking the GUCCI jacket...get it?!] Very Cool Concept!

"Gucci" Dunk SB High 2010 Release

I don't know if this can be considered a retro seeing as how the original version of these never officially dropped but whatever these are they may be the reason I buy my 2nd SB dunk since 2006.
I started writing this blog and I realized I was talking in circles so I'm going to break down the 1st 2 Gucci colorway dunks and then compare the pair above coming out in 2010.
*I don't know what RESN stands for at this time

1-The 1st Release looks exactly like the retro with the exception of the frayed denim and the original Nike SB logo on the toungue. Many people liked the OG version because of the frayed denim but otherwise they look exactly alike.



2- DJ Clark Kent recently released a "Gucci" colorway with ostrich leather where the denim was on the original and retro and a gum bottom instead of the red bottom. His version also was not a SB it was a regular limited release dunk
