SB freq.ask Q&A
| kamikaze wrote: | After all the questions I see on this forum about nike sb dunks, considering they are the same questions everytime, I decided to make a little guild. Hope this will benefit some of the people out there and stop the making of a “new” thread
SB dunks sizing:
All sb dunks sizing are different and varies from shoe to shoe. The reason is because of the material they use to make the shoes. so it is best to ask someone that has the shoe already to see how they fit.
Lacing your SB dunks
Why a thread like this should be made is beyond me. But it has been done here:
http://www.issforums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=106237
Fall/holiday 05 sbs
Curious about a upcoming release?
http://www.issforums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=114231
http://www.issforums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=117613
Gucci dunks
Coming out soon in 09.
What does B-grade mean for dunks?
It usually means that the shoe has some type of factory flaw or defect. Most of the time, you can’t even see this problem on the shoe. It’s most likely just some extra glue or something along those lines. B-GRADES ARE NOT VARIENTS.
Nike dunk SB laces
They are different from regular laces. More oval then others. You can’t really pick these up just anywhere. There was some guy on NT selling a bunch similar to them.
All recent releases.
The admins were kind enough to sticky most all of the recent releases so you have no problem finding them. If you are ever in question about a recent release, just look on top of the forum. Information should be there. If it isn’t, they you can make a new thread.
Which sb dunk is looks better?
It is really based on your own preference which sb looks better. There is really no point of making a new thread asking all member this question. We all have our own opinions and speak our own minds. Do you. Not what someone else want.
Hype
what is hype? basically it is just something that alot of people want in anticipation. therefor "hyping" up the shoes. the perfect example would be the recent release of the tiffany diamond dunks. people started to talk about the shoes way before the release date. also people "camped out" over night(others a few days) for the shoe. this causes prices for the shoes to skyrocket.
Camping out
this term has been used mostly for sb dunks like no other. when a person "camps out" he is usually just staying the day before the shoes are released to the general public. doing this almost guarantees your chance of picking up the pair of shoes you want with out paying the high prices later.
Slept on
shoes that you "slept on" means shoes that you DID NOT camp out for. meaning you didn't stay up to wait for the shoes to drop. rather you slept on that chance and rather try your luck buying them online or on ebay for a much higher price.
SB
don't argue. it means SkateBoarding.
Differences between GR and SB dunks
gr dunks are General Release dunks. that means they are just released into the general public like any other shoe. most of the time these are just regular colorways with exceptions here and there. not alot of hype on these shoes.
sb dunks do NOT have a specific release date. this throws off the re-sellers from buying multiple pairs. there is usually hype on all sb dunks.
gr dunks do not come with stuffed tounge or a zoom air insole. sb dunks do. there are a few dunks that go both ways but i am not going to list them all
gr dunks usually come in a orange nike box. while sb dunks come in many colors. the oldest colorways came in orange boxes, the older colorways in silver boxes, the most recent being pink.
Fake SB dunks
http://www.wkc.edu.hk/hps/S00340419/xwhyfake.htm
this site helps out pretty well. but we do have great legit check members in the legit check forum. so check it out and post your questions about shoes you have doubts with being authentic or not.
NEVER BUY A PAIR OF SHOES AND DO A LEGIT CHECK AFTERWARDS.
SB dealers and Sites
all nike SB dealers can be found at nikeskateboarding.com, afew sites sbs can be found at are
skateparkoftampa.com
activemailorder.com
ccs.com
the rest of the sites you'll have to find for yourselves
Will update more when I get the chance to..

Official Newbie Guide TO Sb Dunks
| CaTasHtRoPhE wrote: | Ok After having all these Topic so know more of these same questions getting asked. Mods Make this a Sticky.
UPDATED 1/31/06
Do Sb Dunk’s Have release dates like Jordan’s?
No Sb’s don’t have release dates like Jordan. Sb's really don’t have a release date, just an estimate on when the shops would have them. It all depends on when your Skate Shop get them in from the mail….
So where can I find info on when they may come out?
http://www.issforums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=117613
How do SB Dunks Fit compared to Regular Dunks?
-GR Dunks: true to size - 1/2 size up (for a more comfy fit)
- SB Dunks: depends on the material used in each shoe
- Suede Material: true to size - 1/2 up
- Leather: 1/2 - full size up (true to size can work sometimes but it seems to tight for me until you break it in)
- Forbes (burlap material): 1/2 - 1 1/2 size up (looser fit)
- Co.Jp Dunks (Concept Japan): true to size - full size up (looser fit)
- Euros/Canada Dunks: true to size - 1/2 size up (looser fit)
What is the difference between Sb dunks and regular dunks?
Most SB dunks have a fat tong while others don’t such as Homers, reverse supas, Barfs, and a few other and all SB highs don't have a stuffed tongue. Expect for
Supremes highs are fat and Wheat Hi's and few others. While Normal dunks where made for basketball.
How much do sb dunks for?
Sb Dunks range in price from anywhere to the 1000’s it’s just depends on the shoe. If your not sure on how much it cost thin you can get a price check thread here.
http://www.issforums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=158660
