When DC decided to re-launch the Graph shoe, SUG caught wind of it and wanted to be a part of it. So, he contacted his mates at UNKL and suggested they do a limited edition glow-in-the-dark SUG figure and shoe combination package with DC. SUG has since become a big skateboarder, in fact at 7 foot 7, he may be the biggest skater on the planet. He is now cruising around his native Iceland rocking the only skate shoe he owns, a size 26 DC Graph. Only 450 DC X UNKL Double Label™ Graph and SUG packs were made and a pack will go for 260 USD.

Release event Friday, January 23rd from 6PM – 9PM at 5&A Dime during the AGENDA tradeshow in San Diego:

701 8th Avenue
San Diego, CA 92101
