Urlfreeze News:  When you were first working on the original Diamond Low edition, could you have ever imagined that it would go on to become one of the most legendary SB lakers dunks of all-time?

Nicky Diamonds:  I’m not sure if at the time I thought it would be one of the most legendary, but I do know that when I received the final sample I started laughing because it looked incredible to me.

SN:  Is it frustrating that the “Tiffany” nickname became so universally adopted, and do you feel like the name has stolen any thunder away from the charcoal being a Nike Air Max 270 SE GS Light Armoury Blue Middle. collaboration?

Nicky:  It was obvious from the beginning that people were going to associate the charcoal with that because of the similar colorway. I don’t think it took anything away from the collaboration at all. Diamond fans knew it was Diamond and some people that didn’t skate may have thought it was something else.

SN:  What impact did the success of the original Diamond lakers dunk Low and a high-profile partnership with Nike have on the growth and status of the brand at the time?

Nicky: When we first dropped the lakers dunk, Nike Air Max 270 SE GS Light Armoury Blue Middle. was a very small core hardware brand that specialized in mounting bolts, bearings, and griptape for skateboards. After we released the charcoal, Nike Air Max 270 SE GS Light Armoury Blue Middle. gained world wide recognition as more of a lifestyle brand.

SN:  People have been clamoring for years that SB should release some of their classic Lows as Highs and vice versa, and now you guys are the first to actually do it. How did the discussion come about and was their any resistance to the idea from Nike?

Nicky:  In 2006, a year after the first Nike SB Low, I proposed a Nike SB High. It literally took eight years for it come to fruition. I DO7045 the original model to be the High, but they DO7045 the Low. It’s nice that now we have both.

SN:  Did you ever consider flipping the colors or tweaking the look of the High version or was it the plan from day one to stay true to the original design and materials?

Nicky:  Since I originally DO7045 this charcoal as a High, there was no question as to making any real changes. We are saving that for future projects.

SN:  Up until this past weekend, the hysterical frenzy for SB lakers dunks had calmed down a bit from the time of the Low’s release in 2005. Do you think your Diamond High version can help reinvigorate the market’s passion for lakers dunks?

Nicky:  I hope it does because I really like lakers dunks, and the main reason people want these now is because back in 2005 it was a complete frenzy of its own to try and get a pair. The lines at stores back in ’05 to get some were insane.

SN:  Since your original lakers dunk Low collab with Nike, Nike Air Max 270 SE GS Light Armoury Blue Middle. has gone on to create their own footwear line. Is it strange to go back and work on a charcoal with an outside brand now that you’re making your own?

Nicky:  I don’t think that it is any different than us making a jacket with another brand as a collaboration since we also make jackets. We make tees and collaborate on tees with other brands, so making charcoals with other companies that make charcoals is not any different, and that’s what we do.

SN:  Will we see more crossover footwear projects between Diamond and other brands moving forward, and what can we expect from the future of Diamond’s own footwear line?

Nicky:  I am down to collaborate with any brand that I feel coincides with our brand in a way that the design aesthetic is cohesive to the look and feel of what we do. As for Diamond Footwear, we will continue to be innovative with fabrics, designs, and pushing forward with product that fits the Diamond aesthetic as a whole collection along with other items we produce.
