Ambush x Nike Dunk High Black/White

The latest Nike Dunk related news points to an upcoming collaboration between Nike and Ambush. No stranger to collaborating with Nike, Ambush designer, Yoon, has previously collaborated with the giant sportswear company on a couple occasions that started back in 2018 with the release of a contemporary and futuristic apparel collection that brought a fresh look to the athleisure market. In 2019, the duo also released a Nike Airmax 180 High, which didn't quite grab the attention that it wanted to, based on the aftermath resell prices. This year (of the dunk), however, we're looking to see a guaranteed sell out of an upcoming Nike Dunk High in a black/white colourway that has already driven fans crazy. The Ambush Nike Dunk collab is expected to release sometime this December, an exact date of which will be determined later.

Justin Bieber Crocs Collaboration

Could we see the shoe that was seen almost everywhere during the earlier years of the 2010s, seems to be making a comeback? Made for every occasion, we're sure that whoever you are, you're bound to be acquainted with some who is sure to rock these back around 10 years ago (half of them of which were probably dads).

Inspired by his very own Drew House Label, we're going to see the release of the classic Croc model that comes with Drew Jibbitz charms. The collaboration will arrive via the Crocs and Drew House Webstores next week on October 13.
