When Nike dropped the Nike Dunk High Premium SB De La Soul earlier this year, y'all were quick to ask about the lows. Well, the wait is over. Let the madness begin this Saturday at we Legendary Ronac. Doors open at 9 am!
Nike Dunk Low Premium SB "De La Soul" (Safari/Baroque Brown-Altitude Green) - 5,795 pesos. Sizes US7.5 to 12.
In 1989, Long Island trio De La Soul boldly announced their arrival on a burgeoning hip-hop scene with oodles of clever wordplay, a perfect grip of eclectic samples and a unique point of view the likes of which the genre had never seen before. The result was 3 Feet High and Rising, the group’s classic debut album that largely bucked hip hop trends of the day in favor of a sound one could only characterize as more peace medallion than dookie gold chain. Posdnuos, Trugoy the Dove and PA Mase (aka Plugs 1, 2 and 3) eschewed the typical braggadocio-style of rhyming from that era with a more laid-back leftfield approach, simultaneously expanding any perceived limitations in hip-hop as well as the audience make-up of those who listen to it. Transmitting live from Mars, The DA.I.S.Y. Age (short for Da Inner Sound Ya’ll) had officially begun.
As long-time fans of both the group and their music, a fresh-faced Nike SB released a Dunk Low Premium SB in honor of De La’s debut opus in 2005. A key release in SB’s crucial early years, the collaboration quickly became one of the brand’s most successful and sought-after releases.
n 2015, Nike SB is proud to announce that the D.A.I.S.Y. Age has returned. Commemorating the 10-year anniversary of the original high, the legendary De La Soul Dunk is back in an all-new low version, complete in premium baroque brown/altitude green leather with vinyl holographic uppers once again featuring 3 Feet High’s iconic album cover artwork. Don’t sleep on this incredible encore performance."
See you all on Saturday!
