The SB Dunk High Humidity, a testament to New Orleans and its vibrant culture, materialized in collaboration with the local skate shop Humidity. This project coincided with the city's tricentennial, marking a significant milestone, and Humidity's 22nd anniversary. The design pays homage to the city's rich musical heritage, specifically jazz and the iconic trumpet.
Primarily designed for skateboarding, the SB Dunk High Humidity provides the necessary support, durability, and comfort essential for the sport. Features like the padded collar and tongue contribute to superior support. Beyond its athletic function, this model has also transcended into casual wear, embraced for its distinctive aesthetic and cultural significance.
The SB Dunk High Humidity has cemented its place in sneaker history. LeBron James, a figure of unparalleled influence, was spotted wearing the shoes shortly after their release in September 2018. This endorsement, alongside the shoe's unique design and cultural narrative, has solidified its status as a highly coveted item within the sneaker community. The collaboration with Humidity and the jazz-inspired design have further amplified its appeal.
The 'Trumpet' variant boasts a full metallic gold upper, meticulously crafted to mirror the gleaming appearance of a brass horn. Its construction incorporates premium materials such as a plush purple velvet lining, translucent rubber outsole, and a Zoom heel unit for superior cushioning. The design is further elevated by signature elements, including a removable red bow tie, the "H" logo, and musical notes subtly imprinted on the outsole.
