The homey PETE from Premium Laces hit me up on the TWitter and asked me would I call these new Nike Dunk Premiums for ladies.
I told PETE that they would naturally be called the ‘Dazzler’ Dunk Hi, appropriately named after the X-Men team member whose mutant ability is to convert sound vibrations into light and energy beams.
For crying out loud what more proof do you need than the fact that she even wore them on the cover of the issue in which she debuted?!?
And for the record, X-Men’s Dazzler >>> Adi Dassler
Had I not seen that X-Men cover, them shits would be the “boogie nights”!
They would have been the Glitteratti….
Great reasoning but copyright issues will probably prevent it from happening…..
Ian,
Especially since Marvel is now pwned by the mouse.
I was originally of the mind to call them the XanaDunks after that movie Xanadu with Olivia Newton-John but then I smartned up NaS and realized that most of the kids buying these shoes weren’t even born when that movie came out.
ha nice lil shot at adidas there DP. good call on naming them dazzler dunks
Maybe they can market them @ a unisex consumer & call them The Twinkle Toes.
I heard Mr. West sports these on his ‘not so fresh’ days.
best to call them the xanadunks; that sounds fresher. besides, dazzler’s shoes converted to rollerskates. but then xanadu was all on rollerskates.
i’d call them the DunKoles, in honor of the former Teen Titan. but i’m corny like that.
Hell I’m pretty sure those same kids don’t know who Dazzler is.
Well the kids are gonna know now. Premium Laces is pushing them joints as the ‘Dazzler’ Dunks
