Nike has been showing off their fairly stacked sneaker lineup for All-Star Weekend. Air Force 1's and a whole slew of Jordan's have highlighted what should be a phenomenal weekend and now, the Beaverton brand is showing off a brand new collaboration. That's right. Nike is teaming up with skate shop Black Sheep for this Charlotte Hornets-inspired Nike SB Dunk High collab. This sneaker is being called the "Black Hornet" and will be released just in time for All-Star Weekend which just so happens to take place in Charlotte this weekend.

This is one of the flashier shoes we've seen leading up to the weekend thus far and will be sure to turn the heads of all of you skateboarding Hornets fans out there.

These kicks have a turquoise and purple upper with elephant print overlays and a black Nike swoosh that has a small hint of silver on the back, reminiscent of a hornet's stinger. The midsole of the shoe is black with an icy outsole.

If you're looking to cop, these will be released exclusively at Black Sheep on February 15th, according to Sneaker Bar Detroit. A deluxe packaging option will be available that looks like a hornet's nest. No price is currently associated with these kicks.
