Yoon Ahn has debuted a new design for the Nike Dunk High that references the designer’s previous work for the [AMBUSH](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ambush-ss2027) x Nike Dunk High in ‘Deep Royal Blue.’ The new sneaker adopts the same color palette as Ahn’s original work, opting for a white leather base and [navy blue overlays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diffused-blue-1). The navy blue shade extends across the tongue branding and outsole, while black comes in for the laces and the Swoosh.

The ‘Deep Royal Blue’ AMBUSH x Nike Dunk High was a significant entry into the sneaker world, boasting long-length Swooshes that extend like motorcycle tailpipes. This shoe piqued the interest of sneakerheads worldwide, and remains a unique silhouette in Nike’s product lineup.

The new Nike Dunk High arrives in late 2022 via Nike and select retailers.
