Minneapolis, Minnesota’s own Familia Skateshop is about to celebrate a decade in the business in a big way. Nike SB is teaming up with the Midwestern skate boutique to give them their very own Nike SB Dunk High. Nicknamed the “Blue Ox”, the pair references the myth of Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox through the use of a pristine blue suede upper and buffalo plaid inner lining. The Swoosh even sees a clever transformation into bull horns. The pair is slated to release on June 27th. Check out more of the latest Nike SB collab below.

It was “fuck nigga” long before it was “fuckboy.” First usage of fuckboy on the internet was an UrbanDictionary definition in 2004 (as “fuck boy”), with the correct definition of a dude who ain’t shit. The term “fuck nigga” first made its way to white ears in 2012 with the movie Snow On Tha Bluff and the songs All Gold Everything and Don’t Like. The few white people on KTT and /r/hiphopheads that aren’t comfortable saying nigga started saying “fuckboy” and (cringe) “fuccboi” instead, bringing that variation back into the mix. It hit tumblr in 2013 or early 2014 in some text posts, then the skeleton meme came along in mid-2014. After that, a post went around claiming it was a slur against trans men (which, no, it’s not, and no, it never was). Later still, white feminists somehow became convinced they had invented the term as a male counterpart to “slut,” which no, they didn’t, and no, it’s not.
