The Lost at Sea x Nike SB Dunk High Atlas is a collaboration that blends storytelling, history, and design into a single striking silhouette. Released in 2020, this sneaker was crafted in partnership with California-based skate shop Atlas, drawing inspiration from a real-life maritime event that saw a shipment of sneakers lost at sea, only to wash up along the shores years later. This unique concept is reflected in the sneaker’s aged aesthetic, giving it a distinct vintage appeal that sets it apart from other Nike SB Dunk releases.
The colour palette of the Lost at Sea SB Dunk High is deliberately muted, with an upper composed of soft, weathered white leather and distressed light blue overlays that resemble the wear and tear of shoes exposed to the ocean’s elements. The faded blue detailing is reminiscent of water damage, evoking the idea of sneakers adrift in the sea. The design is further complemented by a cream-coloured midsole, enhancing the aged effect while providing a contrast to the rest of the sneaker. A red Nike Swoosh runs along the sides, adding a bold pop of colour that references the original sneakers from the lost shipment.
Beyond aesthetics, the sneaker maintains all the functional elements that make the SB Dunk High a favourite among skaters. The padded collar ensures ankle support, while the durable leather construction offers resilience for skateboarding. The rubber outsole is equipped with a classic Dunk traction pattern, delivering excellent grip and stability. The shoe also features Zoom Air cushioning in the insole, providing comfort and impact protection, making it a practical choice for both skate sessions and casual wear.
Atlas branding is subtly integrated into the design, appearing on the insole as a nod to the collaboration. The sneaker was released alongside special packaging that further emphasised the lost-at-sea theme, making it a sought-after collector’s item. With its rich backstory, distressed detailing, and high-quality craftsmanship, the Lost at Sea x Nike SB Dunk High Atlas is more than just a sneaker—it’s a tribute to history, a symbol of unpredictability, and a must-have for both sneaker enthusiasts and skateboarders alike.
