Today, after much speculation, Cambridge-based Concepts have announced it will be releasing the Blue Lobster Dunk Low Premium, marking the shops second foray into the Nike SB collaboration game. As you may remember, on May 31, 2008 the first “Lobster” arrived at the “Concepts Shipping Company” and came packaged with a poster, lobster claw rubber band, tee shirt and condiment box, with the first 50 pairs being boxed in a wooden lobster trap.
This time around, it’s dangerous! The Blue Lobster sneaker will be bagged, tagged and sealed in a HAZMAT foam container. Each pair will be joined by an official Nike SB tee shirt, hang tag and lace lock. The first 200 pairs will come with 1 of 2 Concepts x Alien Workshop skate decks. The Concepts x Nike SB “Blue Lobster” Dunk Low Premium will be released on June 20, 2009 and are priced at $250.00 USD. Concepts will also be raffling off a pair of the original Lobster from 2008 during the line-up. Raffle tickets will be sold for $10 each and the drawing will be held immediately following the release.
After the launch of the Blue Lobster, Concepts will host the Official Blue Lobster Party, featuring a number of special guests and performers including DJ Statik Selektah, Termanology and Masspike Miles. The “Brew Live Cruise” will take place on board the MV Freedom, docked at Rowes Wharf in Boston, MA. Boarding begins at 8:00 pm and the vessel leaves at 9:00 pm sharp! Admission is $30 and only offered to those that are 21+.
Check the video above to see the violent crustaceans in action, and a first look at the shoe (if you can’t wait, there’s a screencap after the jump.) Stay tuned for more images and check out Blue Lobster Danger for some fun viral material.

$250 doesn’t sound outrageous at all.
$120.00 dunk low premium
$50.00 concepts x alien workshop skate deck
$25.00 sb t-shirt
$15.00 lace lock
= $210.00 (before you add in the custom limited edition packaging, which i would guess makes up the other $40.00)
plus they had to cover the cost of that ridiculous (and rather superfluous) video
Frank the Butcher is the best actor ever!
omg these are gods shoes, these are so fuckin nice!!!!
If i dont get these im commiting suicide
Don\’t worry they will probably re-release them just like the other lobsters, minus the other goods.
It\’s pretty beat how they throw in the extra bullshit to add to the pricetag, but whatever.
Be patient and look around your shops in a month and in the meantime cop those oG lobsters.
Parents just dont understand.
does anybody know the name of the song at the end, its been driving me nuts trying to find it ever since i heard it on cribs a few years ago
Pharoah Monk – SIMON SAYS

Maybe they will make a yellow dunk lobster, since there are yellow lobsters too.

Yeah, I’ll probably end up getting supra skytop army blues instead.
