UNDEFEATED’s upcoming Dunk vs AF1 collection is expected to be extensive, with multiple releases expected for both silhouettes. The collection’s central theme is cross-over colorways; that is, UNDEFEATED’s own collabs repurposed to the alternate silhouette. Now, after having revealed two Dunks adapted from their archival Air Force 1 collaborations, it’s now time for the Uptown to shine with this special Dunk High-inspired UNDEFEATED x Nike Air Force 1 “Bring Back 2003”
If you can remember back to 2013, the retailer releases a small-batch pack featuring ballistic-bearing a Dunk High and Hyperdunk 2012. The limited-edition pack was inspired by a special friends and family release given to UNDEFEATED staff upon the opening of the retailer’s second storefront back in 2003 (pictured below). In 2021, they’ll be bringing back 2003 once more, this time repurposing it for the Air Force 1.
