Skatepark of Tampa and Nike SB are getting back together to again reference Floridian culture with a Nike SB Dunk design.

The SPoT x Nike SB Dunk High "Gasparilla" is supposedly inspired by the legend of Jose Gaspar, a pirate who was said to be based in southwest Florida. In keeping with the theme, skull and crossbones emblems adorn the tongue and pirate sabers cross on the toeboxes.

Sneaker release date talk for this pair has it arriving on Feb. 13, a date that would make sense given its proximity to Florida's Gasparilla Pirate Festival in Tampa Bay.
