Brand: UNDERCOVER x Nike
Model: Dunk High 1985
Release Date: July 28
Price: $150

What We’re Saying: UNDERCOVER isn't slowing down following the recent release of its ZoomX Vaporfly Next% 2 collaboration. Jun Takahashi and company are already back alongside the Swoosh for another joint effort spotlighting a court classic in the Dunk High 1985. Offered in "Gym Red," the collaborative pair is slated to release at the end of the month on July 28 through Nike SNKRS and select retailers.
While maintaining the shape and stance of the original silhouette, the UNDERCOVER x Nike Dunk High 1985 is here outfitted with premium construction, being crafted from genuine black leather and gym red pebble embossed nubuck on the upper, as the two shades come together to pay homage to heritage basketball colors. Below, a paint splatter effect is applied to the midsole to draw attention to the bottom of the shoe. In addition to the signature Swoosh featured on the sides, the Dunks are branded with an "Undercover Basketball Association" logo on the heel counter, referencing the fictional UNDERCOVER basketball league.
Look for the UNDERCOVER x Nike Dunk High 1985 "Gym Red" to release alongside a matching apparel collection.
