Official Images of the Nike Dunk High "University Red"
The latest retro from Nike’s archival “Be True to Your School” collection.
The unexpected resurgence of the Dunk has sparked Nike to dig into its archives to bring back some of its most coveted offerings, many of which are involved in the iconic “Be True to Your School” Pack from 1985. This historic assemblage involved several NCAA hoops programs, one of which was St. John’s University in Queens, New York — the alma mater of former NBA stars such as Chris Mullin, Ron Artest and Mark Jackson. Two Nike Dunk “University Red” makeups were crafted for this institution including a low-top and a high-top, the latter of which has now been unveiled by way of official imagery.
The model’s signature two-toned palette comes into play again here. A bold “University Red” outfits the Swooshes, overlays, interior lining, laces, heel tabs and the Nike Air branding that is situated on the tongues. Collars, quarters and perforated toe boxes are done up with angelic finishes to complete its collegiate color combination. Sole sections are treated with the same set of hues, the crisp white being responsible for outfitting the midsoles while the titular shade takes care of the bottoms.
Nike SNKRS is expected to launch this colorway in the coming months for the standard $110 USD, but you can cop them early now via GOAT.
