If there is one pair of sneakers that everyone talks about every day, it’s her: the Nike Dunk. You know it better than anyone since the classic 1985 silhouette regularly makes Retro Jordan 2021 headlines. How could it be otherwise? Like it or not, the Dunk is everywhere, through reissues of OG colors and the creation of new, never-before-seen versions, sometimes from prestigious collaborations. This is the case with this “Deep Royal Blue” version that we owe this time to AMBUSH, the label founded in 2008 by Yoon Ahn and her husband, Vincent Gallo, aka Verbal. To shape this real UFO, nevertheless respectful of the original model of Peter Moore, the Japanese fashion designer has seen the big picture. With its subtly deconstructed finish and ’oversize’ side Swoosh, the new Nike Dunk High from AMBUSH will indeed not go unnoticed. Without transition, we offer you to judge for yourself by setting off as it should be to discover it.
AMBUSH reinterprets the Nike Dunk High in an ultra-seductive blue colourway
If you thought Nike would eventually run out of steam with its Dunk, think again! It is not tomorrow the day before that the American equipment manufacturer will slow down the hellish pace at which it has been revisiting it for more than a year. And this is not surprising because most of the novelties in the range that started 35 years ago have met with great success. Evidenced by this collector’s edition imagined by Yoon Ahn and his AMBUSH teams.
The Nike Dunk High ‘’ Deep Royal Blue ’from AMBUSH is something to be said for, unconventional, to say the least. And it’s not us who are going to complain about it, first of all because it is faithful to the characteristic style of the Japanese label, but also and above all because it is truly out of the ordinary. However, a little change never hurts! On the contrary. Behind its high upper in white leather contrasted with blue overlays, or more exactly “ Deep Royal Blue ”, the pair displays a look with unstructured features, especially on the back of the foot where the yokes literally stand out from the skeleton. of the shoe. The same goes for Nike’s iconic inverted comma, which also stands out thanks to its imposing size and black coating. To enhance the design, Yoon Ahn opted for a sole with a double reminder of white and blue. Finally, you will surely have noticed the addition of a TPU reinforcement on the base of the upper, at the level of the heel, on which the inscription AMBUSH has been affixed in capital letters.
