They’re not quite the collab partners you might expect, but Ben & Jerry’s have teamed up with Nike SB to create a pair of kicks.
The Chunky Dunky dropped today in stores, and will be available on online platforms as of May 26th.
In the classic Nike Low Dunk style, B&J’s have put their stamp on things, with cow print and the colours from their iconic tubs emblazoned along the outer.
The bovine accents on the sneakers are textures to look like they came straight from the cow, while the blue and green signify the lush fields and clear skies where their dairy livestock graze.
Colourful tie-dye patterns and bold text graphics cover the shoe’s insole and heel like the swirls inside the ice-cream brand’s pints.
If you want to get your hands on the limited run, you can do so at certain retailers now.
Pop your location into the Nike SB store locator here. There are locations throughout the UK, but you’ll have to be quick to nab a pair as the Chunky Dunky are very sought after.
As of May 26 the trainers will be available on the Nike Sneakrs platform, and you can sign up to be notified with the exact time the release will go live.
As with any limited sneaker drop, the Chunky Dunky are already available on StockX, but they’re not cheap.
With prices over £1,000 a pair, you’d have to be a real sneaker-and-ice-cream-head to fork out.
Feeling lucky? Ben & Jerry’s are running a competition to win a pair totally free. All you need to do is write 100 words about an ice-cream inspired skateboard trick (giving it as inventive a name as possible a la their flavours).
The competition closes on Tuesday, so get skating and thinking.
