Back in 1997, a small, California-based cult called Heaven’s Gate committed a mass suicide after its leaders convinced the 38 member to do so. Nike decided to produce a pair of Dunk High SB’s inspired by the tragedy, but due to a fear of bad publicity, the idea was scraped. So at this point, these remain just a sample. They feature a predominantly black upper constructed from leather and suede, along with purple accents on the tongue, lacing tabs, and ankle area.

These actually look good. But it is a good thing that they decided to scrap the idea, they prolly would of been critisized for them.
I like this look. I think if they put some more of the turquoise on em they would be perfect though, and maybe lose all materials that arent regular leather.
