CONCEPTS x Nike SB = lobstery shoes

Posted: Wednesday, May 28, 2008
My dude Boston Chris has been a huge Warfare supporter, and hes one of the nice young gentlemen who work at Concepts in Boston, so im just gonna go ahead and re-post all this info that pertains to the release this coming weekend. And before you go and call me out for hyping up the release and/or selling out etc....look at the packaging on this. The box design is amazing and the accompanying poster would probably get hung up in my apartment if i ended up with one. Kudos to whoever was behind the design of this package. (even though the shoes themselves arent really my style)






Subject: Nike SB "Concepts Lobster" Dunk
Release Date: May 31, 2008, 11am
Where: Concepts



Concepts will be releasing their collaborative Nike SB "Lobster" Dunk on Saturday, May 31st. The shoe, inspired by the seafood heritage of New England, will be available in a limited edition set, available exclusively at Concepts. The first 200 pairs, which include the limited packaging, come equipped with a lobster claw rubber band, a tee shirt, a condiment box (which includes lobster shell cracker, fork, bib, an extra set of laces, and wet nap) and a poster, all put into a traditional paper bag used by typical, New England lobster retailers. Not only will the packaging and bag be branded with the "Concepts Fishing Company" graphic, but the release at Concepts will also be catered by Legal Seafoods, who will be providing lobster appetizers. The release will be followed by a raffle for some additional exclusive goodies. The special pack will be extremely limited to 200 pairs, and will retail for $150 USD and the first 50 pairs will come with a special, limited edition wooden box.

    word...I want the package based purely on the box and poster, + I like the fact that they put a rubberband on the shoes and the lining looks like a Red Lobster table cloth. I love when a theme is carried all the way out. I doubt I'd actually wear the shoes though
