New at Nike SB stocklists like In4mation is this new “eBay Charity” Dunk Socks.  The eBay Charity Dunks were supposedly 1 of 1s that went for more money than any shoe has ever sold for.  The protoype was also destroyed after the 1 of 1 was created for the winning bidder.  Hence many of us will never see or get a hold of this exclusive pair of Dunks, so these socks are a decent consolation for many of us.

Nike SB will continue on with a full line of sneakers and clothing for Spring 2009.  In addition to the expected Dunks and Blazers are a couple of new models that include a Blazer Low Hybrid, an Air Zoom Tre AD, and a Air Zoom Veloce.   Staying with the more mellow theme of colorways of 2008, the sneaker lineup of 09 should bring back some of those sneakerheads that moved on since the over-hyped movement of SB.  Their clothing has more of an agressive styling to it that will help keep Nike SB off the sale racks at their retailers.  More images after the jump and a thank you to NSB.org member XXX for the pics.
