Nike Dunk High “Wu-Tang” Set to Make Global Debut on November 9
The highly anticipated Nike Dunk High “Wu-Tang” is finally making its global debut on November 9. This black and yellow colorway, inspired by the iconic rap group, has been a grail for sneakerheads since its limited release of only 36 pairs in 1999. Now, the Wu-Tang Clan has teamed up with Nike to bring this coveted shoe to the world.
The Original “Killa Beez” Colorway Returns
Staying true to the original, the “Killa Beez” color blocking is accompanied by premium leather and the squad’s “W” logo embroidered at the tongue and lateral heel. RZA, the leader of the Wu-Tang Clan, shares his excitement for the release, stating that these Dunks hold cultural significance and recognition for hip-hop and the group’s contribution to the culture.
A “Trophy” for Sneakerheads and Wu-Tang Fans Alike
RZA describes the Nike Dunk High “Wu-Tang” as a “trophy” and appears in the shoe’s campaign imagery alongside NBA players Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart, and Mikal Bridges. The release date for this highly-anticipated pair is set for November 9, the 31st anniversary of the Wu-Tang Clan’s debut album, Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers). The shoes will be available on Nike SNKRS and select retailers with a starting price of $150 USD.
Unexpected Return of the “Wu-Tang” Dunks
While Nike has been revisiting many grail sneakers, one unexpected return is the “Wu-Tang” Dunks. Teased by the brand in June, the shoes have now been officially unveiled and are expected to drop in the coming months. The collective’s logo will return to the lateral heel and tongue tag, making this release a must-have for sneaker history lovers and Wu-Tang fans alike. Stay tuned for more updates on a firm release date.
