Dunk High SP "Syracuse" 2021

Nike Dunk High is Nike's second most popular silhouette with thirty-five years of cultural history. First the Dunks were loved, then hated, then vintage, and now they're back on top. The Nike Dunk High Retro has a classic hoops design, and it brings ‘80s vintage back onto the streets. The design remains essentially unchanged, with nice colour combinations and interesting collabs coming out frequently - with Off White or Travis Scott for example. It would be hard to guess if the higher Dunks are more popular than the low version. Historically, High Dunks have been more popular and are considered the original silhouette. They have a strong association with the skateboarding community and have been widely embraced by the community. In 2002 Nike officially launched the Nike SB, which codified the connection between skate culture and the Dunks. Just like that a silhouette that was once made for the court turned into a skate culture representative.

Nike, a global athletic footwear and apparel company, has a rich and fascinating history that dates back to 1964. The company was founded by Bill Bowerman and Phil Knight under the name "Blue Ribbon Sports". Later on in 1972 it was officially named Nike, as we know it today. The iconic Nike Swoosh logo, designed by Carolyn Davidson, was introduced in 1971 and quickly became one of the most recognizable and enduring symbols in the world. Nowadays Nike is a global leader in athletic footwear, apparel, equipment and accessories. The brand has also collaborated with numerous athletes, celebrities, and fashion designers, further cementing its influence in popular culture. Collaborations with athletes like Serena Williams, LeBron James, and Cristiano Ronaldo, as well as fashion designers like Virgil Abloh and Sacai, have resulted in iconic and sought-after collections. Through its continuous commitment to pushing boundaries, embracing creativity, and promoting inclusivity, Nike remains a dominant and influential force in the sports and fashion industries, inspiring athletes and individuals around the globe to "Just Do It." It's no wonder that iconic models like the Air Force, Dunk and Cortez are historic milestones in the sneaker world.
