The upcoming kicks are laden with animal prints and other canine references, including textured fabrications and specific colors that mimic a true stroll in the dog park. Along the upper, several layered compartments evoke the puppy narrative, including a spotted Dalmation pattern at the quarter, a back heel coated with pony hair for a furry aesthetic and green suede overlays to resemble grass. –HB
The team-up draws from the dark exterior of the Long Beach establishment and features graphic work from famed street artist Neckface. This time around, the upper of the Dunk High is constructed of premium black leather and matching lush nubuck, accented by Neckface’s geometric Swoosh and “Black” embroidery at the heel. Insoles express the same geometric pattern found on the Swoosh, complete with co-branding and the phrase “Always Bet on Black.” Elevating the shoe is a classic Dunk High sole unit comprised of a black midsole and a contrasting grey rubber outsole. –HB
It seems that Nike is gearing up for its next N7 launch, which may come a lot sooner than expected. This time around the Swoosh uses its Dunk High model as the canvas for leather construction that hosts a mix of embossed patterns throughout. Black dominates its upper as striking red detailing follows suit above its midsole and on the Swoosh logos. This iteration of Nike’s Dunk High rests atop of a gum outsole while N7 logos are also placed on each tongue’s tab in gold as a final touch. –HB
Nike continues its run of bringing back classic colorways and they have now transformed the Dunk High into a black and white colorway harking back to the same color palette of a classic original Air Jordan 1. The leather upper is another tribute to the precedent set by the original BTTYS Dunks and the OG AJ1. You can get your pair now at retailers like Caliroots for $120. –HB
Nike SB‘s latest Dunk High takes on a patriotic American theme with this “Captain America” colorway. The upper features a mix of premium black faded leather and black suede with a blue and white star-covered panel around the ankle and a rubber gum outsole. These high-top sneakers are now available at select stockists including Renarts.
