A very rare yellow lobster was recently caught off the coast of Canada and gifted to Nathan Nickerson, the owner of Arnold’s Lobster and Clam Bar in Eastham, Massachusetts.
The yellow lobster, which is both orange and yellow in color, is a rare genetic mutation that appears in only 1 in about 30 million lobsters and makes it appear as if the lobster has already been cooked. New England Aquarium director of research Michael Tlusty says that the lobsters bright color actually makes it an easy target for predators, so maybe this one shown here is lucky it was caught by a humans.

Last summer, Concepts collaborated with Nike SB on a red Lobster Dunk that came in some very fantastic packaging. The Lobster Dunk was a huge success and now Concepts is back with its sequel, a blue version of the same shoe they called the Blue Lobster Dunk. The shoe is to be released on June 20, 2009 and like its predecessor, it will come in its own special packaging. The Blue Lobster dunk will be sold for $250 in a HAZMAT foam container with a Nike SB T-shirt and a special hang tag and lace lock.
I wasn’t a big fan of the original Lobster Dunk, but this blue one is absolutely gorgeous! Those neon yellow/green laces are quite something. Yum!
