The Stingwater x Nike SB Dunk was never supposed to happen. Daniel Kim, the owner of the brand, was too old to be a designer, according to people at Nike. And he definitely wasn’t supposed to flip the brand’s iconic Safari print, first introduced in 1987, into something that resembled the amanita muscaria mushroom, a fungus that’s known in pop culture for its connection to Super Mario and psychedelic journeys.

Released this past Friday at skate shops and Monday via SNKRS, the Stingwater x Nike SB Dunk takes the familiarity of Nike and sprinkles it with a touch of paranoia.
