For sneakerheads with a penchant for both classic silhouettes and nods to pop culture, the return of the Nike Dunk Low “Ultraman” in summer 2024 is a cause for celebration. This isn’t the first time this coveted design has graced store shelves – it originally debuted in 1999 as part of the brand’s Japan-exclusive CO.JP series.
The 2024 iteration stays true to its predecessor, channeling the fiery spirit of Ultraman with a varsity red and silver colorway. While not an official collaboration with the beloved 1960s Japanese superhero series, the design cleverly references the iconic character. Red leather forms the base of the shoe, while contrasting silver hits the overlays, profile Swooshes, laces, liner, and even the rubber outsole. Red mesh tongues and tongue tabs add a touch of breathability, while the white midsole provides a clean foundation.
