Costco x Nike SB Dunks Sell Out in Hours—Resellers Now Listing Them for Over $470
This unexpected collaboration between two cult-favorite brands has resellers anticipating big bucks
Baseball cards, coins, vintage toys or antiques are just a few of the things you’ll find people often collect, but in recent years, sneakers have become a status symbol that shoppers dish out hundreds—even thousands—for. Limited drops and special edition kicks have people lining up outside of stores or waiting by their computers hoping to grab a pair, but last week, sneakerheads found themselves someplace they likely never thought they’d be: Costco. The Costco x Nike SB Dunks are the result of this unexpected collaboration, and with limited stock available, resellers are anticipating a big pay day. Here, read all about this joint venture and why everyone’s clamoring for a pair of these shoes.
Everyone wants a pair of Costco x Nike SB Dunks
If there are any two brands that both have a cult following, it’s definitely Nike and Costco’s very own Kirkland brand. Combine the two? You’ve got a recipe for success. On Friday, January 30, shoppers began flocking to their local Costco warehouses in search of the newest shoes on shelves. The Costco x Nike SB Dunks take inspiration from Kirkland’s beloved sweatshirts, the gray fabric of each shoe resembling the cozy pullover. On each side of the shoe is the signature Nike emblem, with the Kirkland logo on the outer side of the shoe. On the shoe’s tongue is a label that reads “Nike Skateboarding Dunk Low Pro,” and the insole features the Kirkland logo as well.
Where were the Costco x Nike SB Dunks being sold?
According to Women’s Wear Daily, these highly coveted sneakers were being sold in Costco stores across California, Oregon, New York and Washington. Whether or not more stores will be stocking their shelves with these shoes remains unknown, and many fans are still hoping that a restock will occur. Conversations on Reddit surrounding these sneakers have been going on for days, and one commenter who claims to work at an Oregon Costco store shared that their location had sold out by 10:20 a.m. Another Reddit user wrote, “Your best bet is to call your local warehouse(s) and give them that item number. We can search in our system and see right away whether it’s set up for the location or not.”
How much do the Costco x Nike SB Dunks cost?
The Costco and Nike collab sneakers were originally selling for $135, a jump from Costco’s typical clothing and shoe prices.
Costco x Nike SB Dunks resale value
Because of the limited quantity of these shoes and the historic collaboration between these two major brands, people are itching to get their hands on a pair, not knowing if they’ll have a chance to purchase them in store ever again. That being said, many have taken to resale sites to get their hands on a pair, with Complex reporting that in the days following the release, people were listing them for over $470.
While these limited-edition Costco x Nike SB Dunks may have sold out quickly, this collaboration reminds us that you never know what treasures you’ll discover on your next Costco run. Keep your eyes peeled during your weekly shopping trips—the next surprise find could be waiting for you!
