A multicolor knit panel stands in for a sweater pattern on this Nike SB Dunk High 'Ugly Christmas Sweater,' set against a blue ribbon base. Sized for preschoolers and priced at $105, it released December 19, 2017 as part of Concepts' second run of the holiday theme, which spanned the full size range from adult down to toddler.
Concepts had opened the 'Ugly Christmas Sweater' idea in December 2013 with black and heather grey Dunk High Premiums, and the 2017 return leaned further into the knit gag with a busier, more colorful panel. Putting it in toddler and preschool sizes meant a family could match the joke across ages rather than limiting it to adult feet. The high-top shape keeps the ankle wrapped in the knit texture, while the ribbon-blue base and a Zoom Air unit underneath carry over the standard Dunk SB skate build even on a shoe unlikely to see a skatepark.
