Light umber suede forms the base of the Nike Dunk High Premium SB 'Papa Bear,' with faux fur worked into the toe, quarter panel and heel and a hot house orange-red note on the laces and Swoosh. Released in November 2006 at $75, it was the tallest of the three Dunks in the Three Bears pack, following a low-top Baby Bear and a mid-top Mama Bear.
Medicom's Be@rbrick figures supplied the tie-in, with matching bear graphics printed on the sockliner rather than anywhere visible on the upper, so the reference only shows up once the shoe is on. Faux fur had shown up on SB Dunks before, but pairing it across three heights in one pack was new for the line. Papa Bear's high-top shape gives the fur panels the most surface area of the three, wrapping further up the ankle than the low or mid versions could.
