Nike SB Dunk Low Premium “Un-Hemp”
Posted by Alex Kroviak | Oct 20, 2009
Mixing suede with hemp, these Nike SBs received mixed reviews when we first got a look at them this past Summer. For the most part, the colors, design and material selection were agreed to be on point, but the one thing missing was the prized SB fat tongue. If the skinny tongue isn’t a deal-breaker for you, you’ll be happy to know that these have hit some retailers, with more expected soon. As you can see, the majority of the uppers are orange suede, with the remainder being tan hemp. The liner, second set of laces and outsole are all brown, with the liner receiving a white splatter treatment. Red tongue and heel labels finish off the colorway. Do the skinny tongues ruin these for you, or are they still on your list for this coming season? Head to the comments section and let us know. |

no one said they didnt like a shoe because the tongue was skinny…everyone said they liked fat tongues better and preferred it over skinny…like a lady with big breasts…guys dont dislike small boobs but most would prefer slightly bigger ones…no one is gonna turn a hot female down because she has Bs instead of Ds

@truth
one of the brilliant concepts of a fat tongue is the padding…something tightening the shoe strings wont do to your feet is cushion it…thats what makes the fat tongue better…o…and the looks of it…of course…Which wasnt the only case i presented if you reread it father time…and how can you say you show appreciation when you on here b***hing about ppl who prefer fat tongues and “all the streetwear loving, skittled-flavored homos” who buy shoes from you…some appreciation…o…and sorry…i was a jordan fan back in ‘96…which i still am and his shoes have skinny tongues…just so you know…since you know so much

exactly my point Minx vv
gr8 minds do think alike hahaha

Yo ! I agree with man truth if you dont like the shoe just cuz it dont have fat tongue then u just a hype ! u really dont care bout the shoe on how it performs for skatin. Skaters back then liked how the dunk felt without the the fat tongue beacuse it felt good to skate with. Im not a skater but I do ride bmx and I like how the dunk feels without a fat tongue and if it has one I still dont mind how it feels. But yo maybe you can buy some other skate shoes with fat tongues and rip the tongue out and staple them on to your SB’s and then you’ll be happy but if your not happy bout it then you go suck a donkey penis lol !

SoSpacely:
Ok my point proven. your first remark: “they look better” Wow, your first thought that popped in your mind is LOOKS! oh, so strange.
Second: “makes my feet feel even more snug in the shoe” Ever heard of tying your shoes tighter? Is that some crazy concept that your aren’t giving into because of your previous statement? Thats why you like that fat tongue so much. Cause of how it makes you feel when you looked down at it. Plain and simple. As goes for all the kids that love it so much. It wasn’t a performance issue.
“appreciate the fact that ppl wanna shop at your s**tty shop”
Yup, after 15 years in business i think its safe to say that i have shown appreciation to the people who come thru. Especially seeing how you know, we were the first to support Nike SB back in 96.

Fat tounges are way better. I haven’t even coped any cuz the lows don’t have fat tounges. Fat tounges are wayyyyyyyy better
Oct 20, 2009 at 8:03 pm
@truth
im a skater and i prefer fat tongues over any other tongue…they look better and makes my feet feel even more snug in the shoe…a certain tongue wont change anyones swag…certainly not mines…who honestly would not buy a shoe only because of its tongue?…so just face it…pretty much everyone prefer fat tongues over skinny…arent you too old to be arguin with “d**kface little chumps” anyway…grow up father time and appreciate the fact that ppl wanna shop at your s**tty shop

it looks like truth used to get picked on by these kind of kids….kicks aight
Oct 20, 2009 at 2:26 pm
dman-
spoken like a true teenage trend hopper.
if “you” people did it so well, you wouldn’t be beasting on SB’s, and the amount of padding in a tongue wouldnt affect your “swag.” So, you actually aren’t spitting at anything other than when you talk.
once again, notice all the NON skaters loving the fat tongues cause they served no pupose other than aesthetics. Just a way to make your shoes look fat so your baggy ass jeans dont look funny with small feet.
Oct 20, 2009 at 2:19 pm
