Earlier this week, we showed you a preview image of the Blue Lobster Dunk (Nike SB Low Premium), and we now have our first complete look at the sneaker and the packaging that comes with it. This pair hosts a blue upper accented by neon yellow laces, a white tongue and a light blue sole. Though the sneaker itself yields quite a unique colorway, the sneaker’s box is even more unique. The Concepts x Nike SB Blue Lobster Dunk will be bagged and sealed in a HAZMAT foam box along with a matching t-shirt, lace locks, and hang tag. The Concepts x Nike SB Blue Lobster Dunk will release on Saturday, June 20, 2009, at 11:00 a.m. at Concepts, while worldwide retailers will be receiving their shipments soon after.

Yesterday, we detailed the horrific and utterly shameless looting of Los Angeles based consignment store the Holy Grail and the manager’s guarded optimism of a potential reopen and recovery of goods. Today, HG’s owner Richard Torres maintained that insurance would cover the estimated value of the stolen kicks, accessories and apparel. Torres and his staff have already begun rebuilding the store’s broken down facade and would appreciate any spiritual support, donation of time, or value of service. Here’s to hoping dedicated readers like you help guide the Holy Grail upwards and onwards towards the light of functional salvation!

Eddie Van Halen recently filed a lawsuit against Nike, accusing the world-known brand for using the copyrighted striped pattern Van Halen made famous on his “Frankenstein” guitar without permission. The aforementioned striped pattern was used on the mid-sole of the pictured Nike Dunk Low sneakers. A spokeswoman from Nike INC. states that “Nike has not referenced the ‘Van Halen’ name or image as part of any marketing campaign or promotional material associated with the shoe,” while Van Halen believes that Nike has done “irreparable harm and damage.” Van Halen wants Nike to recall all Nike Dunk Lows with this colorway as well as give up all profits made from the sneaker. Another key aspect of this lawsuit is the fact that Van Halen released their own signature sneaker not too long ago with the same exact pattern on the entire sneaker. Be sure to check out the pictures after the jump, and let us know what you think of this lawsuit by dropping a comment below.

While Jordan Brand continues to use polka dots on their sneakers, Nike has started to bring a speckle print pattern onto their high-top basketball model, the Dunk High. This style of the Dunk hosts a black base accented by volt laces, yellow speckles, a black patent leather swoosh, and a volt tongue tag. Overall, this pair yields a fresh and unique colorway that definitely sways away from the typical Dunk colorways. The Nike Dunk High – Black/Volt-Yellow will release in December 2009 at HOH and Footlocker locations. Via Footlocker.
