Dunks continue to be the talk of the town in the sneaker space, especially when it comes to the collaborations that spring up from Nike and its popular SB label. The skateboarding division recently unveiled its trio of “By Any Means” colorways with world-renowned streetwear label Supreme, and now it’s gearing up for its two-pieced SB Dunk High collection with Gundam. One of the installments in the pack is the “Banshee” colorway which draws inspiration from the anime franchise’s Unicorn Gundam, and it has just emerged by way of detailed imagery.

Most of the ground on the heightened half color-blocks between solid black toe boxes, quarters and collars while the overlays complement with a muted obsidian exterior. Outlining each of these panels comes subtle hits of red piping, and added overlays that show up on the first set of lace loops are done up in a rose gold. Toe boxes substitute the traditional perforations for a more robot-like appearance, and the Swooshes have been revamped with an intricately-cut shape to reference the referencing the horns that are present the mobile suits found in the show.

Check out a closer look above, and note these are dropping at select skate shops like The Berrics come November 6 for $110 USD.
