Nike SB introduces a new iteration of the Dunk High sneaker model with the 'Banshee' design update. It is inspired by the Unicorn Gundam from the anime series. This is mainly translated through the special color palette that decorates the entire silhouette.
The new Banshee model is made to represent the design language of the RX-0 Unicorn Gundan 02 Banshee. It was originally piloted by Marida Crus and taken over by Riddhe Marcenas in the novel afterward. The joint sneakers start off with premium black leather materials as the base foundation. This rests underneath the obsidian overlays on top and some orange piping for contrast. There are also rose gold eye stays that stand out by the tongue tab.
