Pawnshop Skate Co. has announced a new collaboration with Nike, debuting the ‘SB Dunk High’ in a new mixed black and brown colorway with gold accents. The shoe incorporates leather on the base and suede for the lining and mesh tongue units, while Pawnshop branding can be spotted on the tongue and insoles. Resting above the Nike Swoosh, Pawnshop’s ‘Wing & Wheel’ logo is referenced with this design. The shoe rests on a white midsole and black outsole.
