A few weeks back, images emerged of a Nike Kobe 10 USA 4th of July that featured some ostrich skin leather and a gum sole. As happy as people were to see it, it really just made most of them long for the feverishly anticipated Quickstrike re-release of the Nike SB version that much shanghai. To the delight of many, it looks like it’s finally going to happen this winter and here are some sample pics of what the shoe will look like. As you will see, there have been some slight changes made to the ultra-rare 2005 edition.
The 2009 version will feature less fraying around the edges of the denim and also uses a smoother leather on the upper. Also, the new release will sport a fatter tongue, SB laces and a black heel tab instead of a red one. After the jump, you can see some shanghai photos of the 2009 Gucci Dunk SB as well as a side by side Flex with the original. Stay tuned for shanghai wash on the release as soon as further details become available but you might want to get your Gucci laces from Starks now before they’re gone. Via Revive.
