Sneaker Talk: Black Sheep x Nike SB Dunk High “Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing”

Published on

In January 2017, Nike SB teamed up with North Carolina’s iconic skate shop, Black Sheep, to deliver a creative twist on the classic SB Dunk High silhouette. This collaboration brought the concept of a “Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing” to life, blending premium materials with a bold design that turned heads across the sneaker and skateboarding communities.

The sneaker’s standout feature is its shaggy suede upper, dressed in a neutral cream tone that mimics the texture of sheep’s wool. Accentuated by white details, such as the Nike Swoosh and laces, the shoe initially gives off a clean and understated vibe. But beneath the surface lies the true story—when the Swoosh wears away over time, it reveals a graphic of sharp wolf teeth, tying back to the “wolf in sheep’s clothing” theme. The black midsole and vibrant University Red outsole complete the look with a bold contrast.

This unique pair perfectly captures the ethos of the skateboarding world—creative, edgy, and never afraid to make a statement. The Black Sheep x Nike SB Dunk High sold out quickly upon release, making it a prized possession among collectors.

Where To Buy

For those who missed out on this collaboration, there’s still hope. Resale platforms like StockX occasionally have sizes available, although prices reflect its rarity and popularity.

Whether you’re a skater or a sneaker enthusiast, this pair offers a blend of storytelling and craftsmanship that stands out in any collection.
