Such a sick collab and fell in love with the blazers when the pics first surfaced!!
Thanks for the review of this shoe! Di’orr is a beautiful Diné artist and her skate shoes are equally charming. So many details on the shoe that has a story or meaning behind them. For instance the outsole colors represent the 4 sacred mountains and stones to the Diné people. White for the east (white shell), blue for the south (turquoise), yellow for the west (abalone) and black for the north (obsidian), green represents natural life on earth. Even the colors of the suede were picked for a purpose, red like our moccasins to represent Mother Earth and turquoise blue to represent Father Sky. The back has a corn stalk which is essential to our way of life, so much so that we collect corn pollen from corn that’s harvested and use it in our prayers. Above the corn stalk are rays of sunshine that give us life. These are a small bit of teachings of the Diné people. I picked up a pair of these and the blazers that she designed as well and love both of the shoes. I went half a size down and glad I did. They fit perfectly. Thank you again for your review! Ahéhee (thank you)
Can't wait to cop. These are so sick. Full of great details. What a great story and colab
Loved the Dunks since I got my first look at them. The colors, the details are perfect for me. That design detail on the the lace protector of the Blazer is a peyote button.
At first i wasnt to fond of these SB highs but after taking a look into them and seeing all the small details and the materials looking really nice. I'm def looking forward to copping a pair.
Loved the pics and the review. Super dope.
Haven’t wore a blazer in over 10 years and this is going to be the one that’s bring it back. I’m not using them for skating but for formal wear. I’m In New York we’ll see how much eyes on it when I step outside
You won't be the only one buddy😉😂😂😆😆🗽🗽🗽I got me a pair too they are dope never had a pair of blazers in my life until these 💪🏾💯💯in the land of Jordans I am neo😆😆😆😆i just might get another pair
Loved the SB dunk High the moment images leaked ❤ Love all the reviews you do!
The symbolism is important, so i recommend that viewers check out the Nike video she did discussing it. You generalized most of it.
THESE ARE SOOOOOOO SICCKKKKKK. My girl is Navajo and so proud that she's trying to cop both of these!
Can I go down a half size on the highs or just go true to size
Love the Blazers! Although DeCon dunks aren’t my thing they are dope Colors hit and story is 🔥🔥. I remember the Greek freak rocking them in the tunnel early this season
I am going to drive six hours get both of these pairs! Thank you for the great video
Back in the early days of SB id have people drive from dc which is like 9 ish hours? Crazy
Love the story hope I can get them.
I don't go for dunk highs since the RTJ was too gaudy with the pink, but these I can rock with!
These are 🔥
Hated the initial pictures, I was sure I was gonna pass and now I’m for sure picking up both!!
I love skating dunk Highs for the last years. Great support and the saved may ankles a week ago from a nasty bail. They look so good and skate great! This colourway and details look really dope but i dont like the stripe over laces and the thin tongue. All in all dunk highs are great but i prefer to buy them used to skate in for less money.
🔥
I just got my pair from CCS can’t wait for the pow wow with my husbands tribe on the reservation next month
Love the blazers. Sick af, i love my decon gorge green sbs. And i love sb highs probably better than lows. But as coooool as the details are on this sb dunk high are sick the colors just arent my fav. But i want these blazers.
I fcks with Vision Street wear still. I saw they had stuff in JCPenny... I copped the sweats.
In my indie emo days the vision duane peters kicks were a staple along with Sambas and asics onitsukas. Lol!
So you would say go down half a size in the dunk sb high from what I’d normally wear in dunk sb lows?
I wouldn’t but I know at least one person who did. I did a fit guide on the community page of my channel
You mean Airwalk. I had multiple pairs of Airwalks with lace savers in the 80s.o even think there was a mostly grey one that had snake skin print that looked very similar.. even in shape. Funny you said that. I was showing that to my other 50yr old friend who never skated and was trying to explain how lace savers worked, when we saw these shoes online. I want the dunks. They’re pretty awesome actually.
Oh for sure airwalk. You’re right. But the old DV8 vision street were had em too. Remember those?
being a deconstruct would you suggest a half size down on either of these?
I wouldn’t. They fit great. I will do a size poll on my community page maybe you can reference that we get. They always lean true to size though.
super amazing story. Im glad she designed the shoe that she wanted ... Any info on the Fleece hoodie? They seem to be extremely limited ... tatally agreed with blazer...fit sooo good...The Dunk is not a skate shoe. Its art. Plenty of quality skate shoes to choose from. I like the change.
That upper blue bleeds on the white laces if you rub them which gives it character Jeje
I look at the back of the shoe and see a road traveling into the sunset. The blue represent water I think because of the wording behind the flap and of course black represents the night sky. This is without me looking into the shoe. I’m going to go searching for more info. Dope shoe.
So will they be too loose if I go with my sb low size???
@@DavidBluetile I got a size 12 on line earlier then ran down to local skate shop and got to try on 11.5 and 12 and picked up the 11.5 now need to trade the 12s for a size 8mens for my daughter 😂 got my work cut out.
👀 omggg the blazerrrrrrr is online sizzz?!
@@lacelockes I mean… they’re gonna be on there! So it’s really more than a test
I like all the details on the Dunk but $145 feels steep. I am sure lots of people will appreciate all the details but they are not for me. I have a feeling these will drop in price just like the candy corn SBs.
@@mexicanfansb most of the recent quickstrikes in the past 4 months.
So not on the Nike app?
I am not sure. distribution plan. raffle odds are better at a local shop though
@@DavidBluetile the black ones look weird but the Indian ones look like gotta have
My boy got thar Di'orr DRIP
😂
These about to go brazy on the rez lol
I dont like the decons imo. Glad to see a high for once
Will sit for under retail
Maybe…. But I don’t let that change my mind on what I think about the shoe. The story is great. The details are next level. People hated on the big money savings too and those are also great!
These are cool but out of my price range. Nike SB’s are getting really pricey now. Rather buy a clean pair of numeric New balances and save myself a couple of bucks
That’s fair. But the numeric x 303 480 was also 130 so it was up there too
@@DavidBluetile yeah I wanted those but agin the price isn’t worth it for me. I respect and appreciate the little details that new balance did with those
who skates in $140 sneakers??!
Ballers I guess! Haha yeah these are steep. Tons of details and material up grades these
It is not pronounced "Dinah"... Di Neh is about the best I can describe it. Like saying meh but Neh.... Di Neh... Say It with me. Diné. 😂😂😂 Dinah 😂😂😂 do not say it like you hear in the video... You will get roasted. Also the symbol is DI'ORR Greenwood logo. 😂😂
Is it a hard I? I listened to the lady who is part of the non profit say it in one of their videos but… dang it… sometimes when the camera turns on the brains turn off.
@@DavidBluetile you had it correctly for the most part. Say neh instead of nah when you pronounce the word. Di Neh. Navajo is the term used by the Spanish to describe the sharp minded little people they encountered in the bloodlusted search for the city of gold. Also adopted by the Diné was the Spanish term for money. Some true history that won't be in the textbooks. glad to educate 👍🏼
Haven’t wore a blazer in over 10 years and this is going to be the one that’s bring it back. I’m not using them for skating but for formal wear. I’m In New York we’ll see how much eyes on it when I step outside
I can’t believe I’m saying this…but…the blazer is way better 😳
I can’t believe I was thinking the same thing! 💪🤦♀️✋😬
Yeah don’t appreciate colors
I was waiting for weeks for the dunk on the Nike SNKRS app and it's hell trying to get a pair which i failed at🤬long story short it sold out in seconds but I had my eye on the blazers as a second option and never owned a pair in my life but the lace cover and the simple black and grey colorway sold me and ironically they are sitting on the app but what I noticed the resale price on them is crazy for large sizes like 13 and 14 I've seen them go for up to $300 😳but the other sizes you can get for retail or under😆that's crazy but I bought the blazers cause I liked the shoe and it's different from blazers I've seen everyone else hoarded those dunks unfortunately as usual and slept on those blazers
I was a bit hesitant about the Blazer, but I’m definitely happy I went with both pairs. 🔥👌💯
@@JorgeGalvezvlog just got mines in the mail yesterday first time seeing them in hand and they are nice I think imma wear them with the laces loose so I can show over the laces protector which is dope
