Nike SB's latest collaborative sneaker is turning an idiom literal with hidden details conveying a clever theme. The SB Dunk, created by Black Sheep skateshop in North Carolina, features a fuzzy suede upper representing sheep's clothing and a wear-away Swoosh that reveals wolf detailing.

Other canine details include a graphic insole and a custom lacelock and bloody laces available only via the launch at the shoe's home store.

The shoe's black, grey, and red color scheme appears to be a reference to the logo of the rap group Black Sheep.
