In many ways, a high top retro would take these back to basketball while still paying homage to the franchise that brought the theme to retail.

The Nike Dunk is rooted in basketball, becomes reinterpreted for skateboarding, Nike SB formally forms, signs a team of skaters, and laces NYC-representative Danny Supa with a Knicks-themed colorway. A high top would please many and even win over some AF1 purists. Props to Sneakerpedia for the history lesson, we’d gladly take the fellow OG endorser makeups as mids. Now that’d make a powerful pack…
