Nike Dunk High Premium SB ‘Ron Cameron’ Sample | Size 9

Designed by Northern California graphic designer, illustrator, painter, and skater, Ron Cameron, these Nike Dunk High Premium SBs were rumored to be a part of Nike’s Artist Series, however, never saw a public release. 

Dressed in a grey suede upper, the pair features black accents on the eyestay and tongue. Cameron’s eyeball artwork pattern is found on the toe box, mid-panel, and ankle collar. The pair is finished with a contrasting yellow Swoosh, sockliner, and paint splatters by the heel.  

Samples are sneakers made by the manufacturer either for promotional purposes or for testing various design aspects.

The Nike SB Dunk made its formal debut in 2002 when Nike officially reworked the famed Dunk basketball sneaker originally designed in the 1980s with upgrades suited for the skateboarding community. The man behind it, former Nike executive Sandy Bodecker, is credited with building one of Nike’s most beloved subdivisions in the early 2000s with the Nike SB line.

What sets Nike SB apart from other competitive brands is the unbridled creativity, collaborators, materials, and whimsical highly thematic designs that define a generation of sneakerheads. Nike has explored hundreds of concepts – often with a sense of humor – through its Nike Dunks. From designs that range from beer bottles to guitar cases, to horror films, jewelry, animals, arts and cities – the Dunks represent some of the most beloved and creative models for the brand.
