Nike Dunk fans can now get some more life out of their coveted sneakers with Upheaval’s new release.

While heel guards are nothing new, the Dunk Armor was designed and made specifically for the Nike Dunk. Coming in a blister pack, the Dunk Armor comes in three sizes and mimics the outsole pattern seen on the Nike Dunk, and is aligned using a small nub.

Attached using the supplied adhesive tape, Upheaval’s instructions indicate that the Dunk Armor should be allowed to set for 24 hours, where it can be removed with kitchen detergent or nail polish remover containing acetone. Those looking to add some extra miles to their Dunks, or prevent worn heels due to heel drag, can head over to Upheaval where the Dunk Armor is selling for ¥1,980 JPY (approximately $17 USD).
