You right, it is a beetle know as Scarabaeus sacer, common name "sacred scarab". Scarabs were popular amulets and impression seals in ancient Egypt. Scarab amulets were frequently wound into a mummy's bandages to protect the deceased and ensure rebirth. Personally, I think they used this beetle for the reason and history I mentioned above.
I actually just bought myself a pair on goat yesterday for my birthday. I will wear one shoe with the green laces. This is definitely top 3 best dunks of 2021 if not #1
I’d put the Mummy and What The Paul above the Carpets and Strawberry Coughs just because I’m a bigger fan of lows but all the ones you named are great releases for Nike Sb in my opinion as well.
This is the best sneaker of 2021 in My opinion. I even got Travis Frag Jordan 1 lows for retail & still I gotta admit I like this Mummy Dunk alot more.
I think these SBs would look better customised or distressed, and have parts snagged and torn and little pieces hanging off as apposed to just cutting away at the top layer
These are made with skateboarding in mind, once the skater rips through the first layer of canvas it reveals the suede underneath. Dont think people should skate them though the resale value is going to be insane😂💯
@@bdurrrr This is a limited release. Can’t get them online only in stores. Half the stores I’ve seen that are selling them are doing raffles only… This is going to be very fucking hard to come by. I would say unless you’re willing to spend big bucks… You won’t get your hands on one.
@@ImCastorTroy8 Average sale price, all sizes included, is around 500 across all platforms. Only size 12 averages 600. Don't confuse StockX lowest ask's for actual sales. Obviously the bigger sizes will go for a bit more, but don't think they'll be "insane" as OP said.
Nick has been skating a pair lately and said they aren't super breathable but because the upper is a very light color they don't get as hot as maybe a black shoe would.
I’ve got my sneaker plug on the look out for these if I can’t manage to cop for retail. I got someone in the states entering all the USA raffles and the raffles in his state, I also got family in Europe entering all EU and his country’s raffles for me
I did your video. It was great. Really appreciate but if you look on you tube. Your the only one with mummys with extra green lace. Nobody else unboxing
Got into sneakers cause of yeezys. Dunks are now my favorite, his and lows. Especially special edition ones like this or the turdunkens, dog walkers. So many cool little details. But damn I can never hit for retail 😞
@@BlakeYarbrough I purchased these off stockx because they were cheaper. Do you think i should trust them? obviously I’m going to legit check but remember you stockx sold you fakes videos got me jumpy.
hieroglyphics spell bwong, which are the initials of the Designer, Bryce Wong, Wordup! shouts out to idem0n, Bryce Wong, Nike SB, and Blake Yarbrough. God Bless Family🙏🏾✌🏾🐜
What is dope about the hieroglyphics is it spells out BWONG or B-Wong, aka Bryce Wong, the Nike employee who created/designed the Mummy Dunks.
super dope detail, didn't know this before I had the sneaker.
That glow is nasty! 🔥🔋 Love the customization aspect of these SB’s.
Yeah the glow got me haha it’s fun to experiment and see how it looks.
@@BlakeYarbrough aye bro where did you get that Vintage Atlanta Braves Grey sweater you wore to the Braves game the other day??

👏👏 Thanks for the comment and added history
One of my "need to have" aka Grail. Just love the neutral colors and the glow in the dark is just icing on top 👌
I love when they do SBs with lots of little details like these 🔥So sick!
Agreed! Crazy that retail is only $110 and Jordans can be $200 with virtually little to no creativity sometimes.
The bug is a scarab beetle, they have an association with ancient Egypt and mummy lore.
He never watched the movie clearly lol

happy birthday! congrats on the new sneakers
@@BlakeYarbrough thanks Buddy. About a month ago I orderd a glow in the dark mummy shirt so I have a outfit already.
Thanks for this review. What a banger of a sneaker. Can’t wait to get my hands on this one.
Thank you! Definitely a dope sneaker hope you’re able to grab a pair 🙏
appreciate the on feet shots from a distance. helps show what the sneaker actually looks like instead of just the knee down.
Awesome, glad you enjoyed it thanks for the feedback
Just found out cameraman Nick isn’t just with Harrison and this hitting hard 😔✊
Top 3 SB of the year for me! Would have to be between Parras, Carpets, What The Pauls, Mummy, and Strawberry Coughs for Top 5 SBs of the year so far
I’d put the Mummy and What The Paul above the Carpets and Strawberry Coughs just because I’m a bigger fan of lows but all the ones you named are great releases for Nike Sb in my opinion as well.
Bro, I didn't even know they came layered but now I'm psyched about getting a pair. Hopefully, the raffles are in my favor!!!!
Where are the raffles at
@@elliotprice72 stores depending on where you live
Best review of this shoe ive seen so far! Awesome content! I just picked these up myself but not brave enough (just yet) to cut them up.
Ayyy thanks bro I appreciate it 🙏 great pick up these are 🔥🔥
Please don’t ever cut it there fire 🔥 as it is tearing it would make it look old and wack
yea these are insane! they are dropping instore in my city tomorrow, wish me luck!
Good luck! 🍀 hope you get them!
@@BlakeYarbrough Got an L only 8 pairs they said :P
First time watching one of your videos, great review and a great trainer!!
Welcome to the channel! I appreciate it 🙌🏼
just bought it in StockX today,can not wait for them arrived,thanks for the good review video
Have you gotten your pair yet?
Your right it’s a scarab beetle like in the movies The Mummy and Mummy returns with Brendon Fraser and Rachel Weiss.
This is the best sneaker of 2021 in My opinion. I even got Travis Frag Jordan 1 lows for retail & still I gotta admit I like this Mummy Dunk alot more.
Love this pair..but would love to see someone cut the layer at the heel tab. I wonder if there is a Nike logo there
Video coming Tuesday 👀
My guy! Awesome review/shoe. These are fire.
I agree, sb dunks are the best when it comes to creative design! 🔥🔥🔥
Yeah so many amazing pairs and stories/concepts
Nice and detailed review blake! Keep going!
Thanks so much, appreciate that. 🙏
the hieroglyphics spell bwong which r the intials of the designer bryce wong super cool easter egg
🙏🏾✌🏾🐜thank you kindly for the education, Bryce Wong WordUp! how did you find that out? you got an awesome understanding of detail🙏🏾✌🏾🐜God Bless Family
I’ve been looking so forward to these snkrs and for a good review, thanks. Now I’m sure it’s definitely cop!
Glad you enjoyed it thank you! It’s definitely a great sneaker 🔥
What do you think resell is gonna be ?
does anyone know how to clean the canvas on the shoe
I think these SBs would look better customised or distressed, and have parts snagged and torn and little pieces hanging off as apposed to just cutting away at the top layer
Video coming Tuesday 👀
I impulsively bought these as my first expensive pair of shoes and I’m so happy I did they are so fkin dope
That is tough I'm getting mine this week might rock both laces don't know 😫
These are the best dunks ever created
When do these drop in the us? And where
DF have to get this .and super cool video 💪💪🙌
Hope you’re able to cop bro. Thanks I appreciate you 🙌
The Eye of Horus is on the back of the tongue. All the details are dope on these
What’s the name of the Nike shirt you wearing when showing them?

4/5 times retail ain't too crazy. And as more pairs release I doubt prices will fo higher.

@@ImCastorTroy8 Hm, resell is around $500 atm, and there are less pairs now than there will be in the next week(s).
@@bdurrrr yeah if you have small feet. Stockx is running around 7ish

Are these purple boxes?
These are so sick hopefully can get my hands on them!
Hope you get them!
My local shop is still waiting of their shipment. pretty excited for this release
I hope I could cop these on release day and good luck to everyone else who is gonna try to cop these 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Best of luck 🙌
@@BlakeYarbrough thanks you to
I would love to hit on these for retail for the toe! 🤞🏾
Hope you do! 🍀
you think they finna resale for a lot ?
They look cool, green laces are fire but sorry , i don’t feel that cutting them up is an improvement
Neon green laces for sure
Dope music choice!!!!! Deff should have left them be though! My humble opinion
Glad you liked the music vibe 🙏 yeah I may not cut my own pair but I enjoy getting to show before and after so others can make their decision first 👌
Do you know when and where they drop
Thank you for the review these are definitely dope and subtle which is what I like.
Yeah even though the outsole is glow in the dark the shoe is still very subtle.
@@BlakeYarbrough no doubt
Love your videos and I think these shoes are 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you! This is one of my favorite SB releases all year and I also think one of the best.
What type of Levi’s are the ones you’re wearing in the on foot shot. BTW GREAT VID 👍🏽
great review...!!🔥
After watching your video, my intention to buy it became clear. Thank U 👍🏻
Where did you purchase your black light? Need one like that!
Amazon 👍🏼
Green laces. I have reverse wheat dunks which are already monochromatic more or less
Cant wait for these
Will these be dropping on SNKRS in the US?
Hopefully yes but as of right now I don’t think so.
hello, please tell me how to charge them so that they glow like that?
Natural light/sunlight works great. I used a uv/black light to charge them up quickly but it fades more quickly as well.
Where's the best place to resell?
Hey just came across your page and this was a cool vid. Just wanted to ask, did you go TTS? Or should going up a Half size work?
For Nike Sbs I personally go up a half size due to the extra padding around the foot and on the tongue. Glad you enjoyed the video 🙌
These breathable during the summer?
Nick has been skating a pair lately and said they aren't super breathable but because the upper is a very light color they don't get as hot as maybe a black shoe would.
Anyone know the sites it’s gonna get release on cause people is saying it’s a euro release????
I’ve got my sneaker plug on the look out for these if I can’t manage to cop for retail. I got someone in the states entering all the USA raffles and the raffles in his state, I also got family in Europe entering all EU and his country’s raffles for me
I need these for sure 🔥🔥🔥 Hoping prices will come down some more. Then pull the trigger
Yeah if I could get a pair for $300ish that’d be worth it to me.
Bro I feel you!!!!
I'm copping for 300 if it gets there.
wow like this so much and thank you for showing what's under
Thanks for watching I appreciate you
I have my own pair n went with the regular laces .
Where you get the laces bro ?
Bro how did you made it to glow ? Do u need actual torch light?
Sunlight is the best but artificial light works too
Do they come up with spare green laces. Most unboxing do not include. Thanks
Hopefully you saw the full video 👍 yeah they do
I did your video. It was great. Really appreciate but if you look on you tube. Your the only one with mummys with extra green lace. Nobody else unboxing
@@chrisarminio9722 if they didnt have the spare laces or the purple box they prolly had fakes.
Love the shoe … I have a pair myself I won’t cut them unless I had another pair to do it with , then I would …lol …
Sad theyre soooo expensive 3 1/2 pairs minimum
Crazy details
i got a pair off premier but for some reason they dont glow.
Ayo?!!?! Are u fuckin serious?
Best dunk SB since many years
Bought it for resell but man I’m excited for them 😩
I’m curious to see how wide they release. Hope you like them! Details are 🔥
Why you buy for resale instead of waiting for release it’s gonna lower or you could even grab for retail if you’re lucky
Do you need that light to make them glow ?
No, any light will make them glow. Direct Sunlight is best but artificial lights work as well. 👍
What are those jordan 1s in da background
Jordan 1 Bordeaux, got them early
Missed adding these to my collection bit pricey right now
Same 🥲
🔥🔥AF!! Love how subtle they can be…Think they’ll come down after the holiday and release…. I’m gonna need to double down… Nice Visuals guys…🤘🏽
Thanks bro! 🙏 Yeah I hope resell comes down so that I could get a pair to wear. Really like them on feet. Great Fall sneaker.
They already dropped from $2,800 to $600.
Imagine if the laces also glowed.
Got into sneakers cause of yeezys. Dunks are now my favorite, his and lows. Especially special edition ones like this or the turdunkens, dog walkers. So many cool little details. But damn I can never hit for retail 😞
Great video love the dunk
I’m a size 9
Imma cry bro that shoe is soo fire I gotta get it I just gotta
Super fire 🔥🔥🔥 SB, so much detail on the shoe. I personally like the original laces not a fan of the bright green laces.
Agreed, the details are freaking awesome. The cream or tan lace is the better of the two but the green is cool too, just very bright. haha
Delayed by Nike as a lot of shoes but who knows the the release?
Great review, I think these are so cool, would love to have a pair🤩🙏🏼
Thanks man, I really like them too. If you’re going for a pair good luck I hope you get them 🙌
Shiiiit I'm rockin 1 of each, only cause I wanted that creamy taupe lace in my Mystic Reds LOL
What kind of pants are those? Brand?
Just a loose fitting pair of Levi’s
Just purchased these today. I know I’m going to take an L on release day and these might go up. Next is the strawberry cough
I think you will really like both of those dunks. So many great details on each.
@@BlakeYarbrough I purchased these off stockx because they were cheaper. Do you think i should trust them? obviously I’m going to legit check but remember you stockx sold you fakes videos got me jumpy.
Are the hieroglyphs spelled casually or do they have a meaning?
I’m not sure to be honest. I’ll have to research the images and let you know
hieroglyphics spell bwong, which are the initials of the Designer, Bryce Wong, Wordup! shouts out to idem0n, Bryce Wong, Nike SB, and Blake Yarbrough. God Bless Family🙏🏾✌🏾🐜
@@sinnceer_era yooo thank you
@@sinnceer_era do you have an instagram profile? I want to ask you some information
@@vincenzogrillo74✌🏾🙏🏾🐜 yessir, sinnceer_era 🙏🏾✌🏾🐜
JUST got my pair. In love. That glow is NASTY. LIke damn... Shit will glow in the daylight
The glow is awesome on these for sure 👌🏼
These hieroglyphs on the back of the tongue are cryptic name of this shoe designer.
These are sick im hoping I can get a pair of these
Do you know how to get them in the US?
You can message Berry 👆⬆️🆙. To place your order ..
Why cut off a panel of the toe box?
To show what’s underneath, or you meant why that specific panel?
Best sb dunk 2021 💯
🔥🔥
Skateshop exclusive in the US and will most likely have most of the pairs backdoored anyways. Unfortunately.
I heard this after I filmed the video, I was hoping to see a wider release. We’ll have to wait and see if anything changes.
I like the other Halloween dunks more
The other ones are cool too but I like this colorway better for my personal taste. Thanks for watching 🙌
Easily best drop of the year. Had to pull the trigger and pay resell
How is the sizing?
Standard Nike sb sizing, I go up a half size.
Simply amazing. Must have
Can I pls have those dunks you giving away I’m a size nine 😊
These look fire :)
yeah im buying them now
