Nike continues to add more iterations of the iconic Dunk series to its roster with the returning Dunk High silhouette that is made alongside Wu-Tang. The shoe made its original debut back in 1999 and it is highlighted by a black and Goldenrof tonal colorway option.
It joined the brand as a part of the Be True launch from Nike that was released alongside the 1998 album The Swarm. Back then, only 36 pairs were made -- the shoe features the signature emblem that nods to Wu-Tang that can be seen along the lateral back side of the quarter panel and tongue. The color palette features yellow and black details along the upper made from premium leather.
