In 2005, Nike SB enlisted Nick Tershay, aka Nicky Diamonds of Diamond Supply Co., to be part of the “Team Manager” series – alongside Stüssy, Real Skateboards, Alien Workshop and Hunter Muraira.
Diamond Supply had already made its name as a leading skate and lifestyle brand, and in 2005, Tershay was asked to design an SB Dunk Low. The result: An iconic pair which some regard as the most beautiful Nike SB Dunk Lows of all time.
Dressed in crocodile embossed leather with vibrant Tiffany Blue-like panels, Tershay described his SB Dunk as the most hyped and luxurious shoe at the time. Contrasting with the black crocodile and blue panels is a metallic silver Swoosh. This pair features custom Swarovski black diamond crystals filling the Swoosh. The tongue-tag also features the Diamond Supply Co. diamond logo.
The pair was influential enough for Nike SB to give Tershay a follow-up 2013 collaboration — a high-top version of the same “Tiffany” Dunk — and a further collaboration in 2018, with three new colorways featuring the same motifs.
