I'm a huge Nightmare on Elm Street fan and moderately enlightened fan of the culture revolving around the custom and rare Nike Dunks. I'm not cool enough to rock highs or mids, so I keep with the lows; another reason I love these babies.
Unfortunately, because of a legal hijinx between New Line Cinema (parent company of all A Nightmare on Elm Street merchandise) and Nike there can be no way to procure these ripping bad boys as of yet. It has become my opinion that all personally invested in making these Dunks available should send emails to New Line as well as Nike to perpetuate a legal resolve. There is no reason these should be kept from our grasp. All horror cinephiles need this. I personally need this to complete my Freddy memorabilia. I got the entire DVD series, original poster, beach towel, pewter belt buckle, sweater, fedora, and glove.... I just need these damn shoes. It's not gravy enough to have the Halo dunks as a fan of both game and sneaker when there is a shoe with a design so near and dear to my heart. I grew up off an Elm Street and remember the first time I watched the original at my buddy Brandon's house a block over. I was 8 years old and that movie put the fear in me like no other. Walking, hell, running home that day through the wooded backyards is one of my most invigorating memories. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has a childhood ear-marked with such an icon. And because of this I urge you guys to send shout outs to New Line and Nike. In the meanwhile, feel free to oggle. It's all that can be none.
If I don't wake up with these dunks on the market, I may not wake up at all.....
