When it comes to the world’s most popular sneaker brand, the undisputed champion is the Swoosh. With classic models like the Air Force 1 and Nike Dunk continuing to run the game, it’s safe to say that the brand will be king of the hill for a while to come. Now Nike will show some self-praise with a special-edition Nike Dunk High “World Champ” — the next in a series of classic models that features the same theme.
But it’s not just the model that is considered one of the best in the business, but its “Panda” color scheme that seems to be the hottest ticket in sneakers right now. Here, the Dunk High “World Champ” carries that over, with white leather uppers, black nubuck overlays, and two-tone sole units as the pair’s anchor point. From there, theme-specific wrestling best dubraes, gold Nike tongue branding, and royal purple liners link back to past releases from the pack to round out the design.
Grab a very first look at the Nike Dunk High “World Champ” here below, and look for these to land at select Swoosh stockists and Nike.com sometime throughout 2022.
The collection will also include this Air Force 1, Nike Dunk Low, and the just-revealed Nike Blazer Mid.
If you can’t wait out the release, then you can scoop up pairs now from select aftermarket sites like Flight Club and GOAT.
