The Wu-Tang Clan Dunk is the Ultimate Throwback
A friend recently asked me, “Do you think Nike will make a comeback?”
The question followed an exchange about recent releases by some of its biggest competitors – including Adidas, New Balance and Asics – that have overshadowed the activities of the Oregon-based sportswear giant.
“It has a few tricks up it sleeve,” I – a big Swoosh advocate – responded.
Said tricks: impending re-releases of its most sought-after grails.
The Air Jordan 1 “Bred”, Undefeated x Air Jordan 4 and PlayStation x Nike Air Force 1 are all said to be returning in 2025.
But before all that, a greater gift to the sneakerheads. Something epic to mark the grand re-opening of the most protected vaults in its archives. A reissue of a kick that has never before been revisited; only 36 pairs were made to the public when it released 25 years ago.
The Wu-Tang Clan Dunk High, ladies and gentleman.
Back in black and pollen – a visual nod to the hip-hop group's affiliates known as the “Killer Beez” – and with Wu's “W” logo embroidered on its lateral heel, it looks just as it did in 1999.
Much like the band's de facto lead, RZA, actually, who we can confirm is in support of the drop. “These sneakers are a trophy,” he expressed to Nike, “[...] and now thousands of people will have a chance to own a pair.”
With that, it sounds like the Dunk High is set to restore its standing, and so is Nike.
