Here is the "Japanese City" Pack from Nike which includes the Osaka Dunk, Fukuoaka Dunk, Nagoya Dunk, and Tokyo Dunk, each representing a landmark feature of the Japanese city they're named after. In terms of color, all the shoes are definitely on the bright and flashy side with the exception of Tokyo Dunk, simply black and white. However, the Tokyo Dunk stands out with its black leather and white fur, inspired by a giant panda. The Osaka Dunk, with red/white stripes and blue linings, represents the food of Osaka and its icon, a drumming doll.
The Fukuoaka Dunk pays tribute to its festival and shrines, with multicolored patent leather and asymmetrical pairings. The Nagoya Dunk is completely covered in gold patent leather with mint green accents, referring to its famous Gold Dolphin. With meaningful and eye-catching designs, the shoes make up for a great release for all the Dunk fans out there.

In a visitation back to its foundation as a college bred performance basketball sneaker, Nike introduced the Rivalry Pack. Sourcing out the biggest fanatics, team players and athletic departments at three colleges, the end result was a product highly reflective of the colleges at hand. The three schools memorialized include Syracuse University, University of North Carolina and Georgetown University. These Dunks were honored with a special dinner where select guests were each gifted with a pair, most likely creating an insatiable envy amongst the schools biggest fans.

Nike is no stranger to making regional exclusives with their Dunk SB's. We have already seen the Brazil series and now a mystery pair has been spotted in Mexico. Although little information is known about these, one can only wonder if there will be a Mexican series in the near future.
