Michael Le Through both Nike and Converse, Yoon of AMBUSH was provided the opportunity to express herself with little to no filter. Her works with the Chuck Taylor are aggressive, replete with an array of unique inspirations, while her Swoosh-marked standouts are slightly more reserved yet still brimming with the label’s identity. Soon, following the official unveil of her NBA partnership, the designer is set to debut her Dunk High, a silhouette that lands next week clad in Black and White.
Unlike the pink colorway remembered from New York Fashion Week earlier in the year, this pair is more reminiscent of the Dunk’s original colorways. Polished, black leathers dress the entirety of the overlays, even the laces and the oversized Swoosh whose extended point references the back pipes prominent throughout Japanese bike culture. Elsewhere, the white-coated base further leans on familiarity, bringing the model back to its roots even despite the heightened collar, additional heel stabilizer, and movement-emulating modifications.
Grab one of the best looks yet at the AMBUSH Dunk High here and expect a release to arrive at select retailers as well as Nike SNKRS on December 11th.
