Nike SB Dunk Low Premium ‘Anchorman’ Sample | Size 9

The Nike SB Dunk Low ‘Anchorman’ was released in 2009 and pays homage to the iconic character from the 2004 comedy, Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy. Portrayed by Will Ferrell, the pair’s color scheme reflects Burgundy’s signature anchor suit.

This sample rendition features unique differences compared to the wider release. Most notably, bright blue accents can be found by the collar and heel, rather than the stripped pattern that was ultimately used in the final design. Additionally, this pair’s tongue is white and features a sample sticker on the insole. 

The Nike SB Dunk made its formal debut in 2002 when Nike officially reappropriated the famed Dunk basketball sneaker originally designed in the 1980s with upgrades suited for the skateboarding community. The man behind it, former Nike executive Sandy Bodecker, is credited with building one of Nike’s most beloved subdivisions in the early 2000s with the Nike SB line.

What sets Nike SB apart from other competitive brands is the unbridled creativity, collaborators, materials, and whimsical highly thematic designs that define a generation of sneakerheads. Nike has explored hundreds of concepts – often with a sense of humor – through its Nike Dunks. Taking inspiration everywhere from beer bottles and horror films to jewelry and significant cities, Dunks represent some of the most beloved and creative models for the brand.
