Although the Nike SB Dunk has never really lost its flare, 2020 seems to be the golden age for these shoes so far. With back-to-back limited and highly sought after drops, it’s interesting to think how they got here.

Let me briefly walk you through the story of the Nike SB Dunk.

To many, the Nike SB Dunk is a street-wear icon that originated on the streets of LA during after 2002. The Dunk eventually brought the skateboarding and the Hip-Hop movement together to birth modern street-wear as we know it today.

It all started in 1985 when the Nike Dunk was created as a basketball shoe. It was released along with the Air Jordan 1 and sold quite well up until the 90’s. Afterwards, the Dunk got outdated as Nike began making better sneakers.

Then in 2002, Nike realized that skateboarders were looking for a low cost sneaker with great traction and ankle support.

With popular collaborations with superstars such as Tony Hawks and Lance Mountain, the Nike SB Dunk reached the spot light in virtually no time.

The popularity continues to this day which is reinforced by collaborations such as the Medicom Toy Nike SB Dunk Low Be@rbrick.

Medicom Toy| Toy Manufacturer to Street-Wear Icon

Medicom Toys was founded by Tatsuhiko Akashi in 1996. Akashi said in an interview that he has always loved toys and that “A life without toys is no life at all”. He started his toy company after leaving a very well payed job at a computer manufacturing company.

Their Bearbrick toys are one of the most iconic in the street-wear world. It originated as a childhood obsession of the creator that was reintroduced in so many unique ways that it became more than just a kid’s toy.

The Bearbrick toy is now considered an adults collectible item. Adding to its popularity are the giant collaborations with names such as BAPE, Star Wars, and now Nike.

The Bearbrick toy now spans the world, having touched an array of subcultures and niches along the way. The limited releases also make the Toys fairly valuable on reseller markets.

Resale Value

It comes as no surprise that these shoes will be extremely profitable. Judging by the aforementioned sneakers, I’d say keep your wallets ready and be as alert for the upcoming raffle as possible!

To get your money back on StockX, you’ll need to sell Medicom Toy Nike SB Dunk Low Be@rbrick for at least $150. Thus by using my estimated re-sell value, expect profits of around $750 per pair!

On websites such as eBay, there is no service fee for items costing over $100 so profits there may even be higher.
