UPDATE 28/10/24: The Nike Dunk High ‘Wu-Tang’ is coming back on 9TH NOVEMBER 2024! This sneaker isn’t just about style; it’s a nod to hip-hop culture and the legendary Wu-Tang Clan.
Reflecting on the importance of the sneaker, Wu-Tang Clan’s leader RZA shared, ‘These Dunks are important to me and the Wu-Tang legacy because of the cultural impact they’ve had since their original release. For many years, the sneaker world was reserved for athletes and some entertainers, and Nike recognizing us in this way is a testament to hip-hop and our contribution to culture.‘
The return of the Wu-Tang Dunk High honours both the group’s lasting cultural impact and the evolution of streetwear as a form of expression. With its bold yellow and black colourway, this sneaker has become a classic in its own right, blending the boundary-breaking spirit of Wu-Tang with the style legacy of Nike.

UPDATE 27/09/24: After making a cryptic debut in June, the Swoosh has now fully unveiled the Nike Dunk High ‘Wu-Tang‘! Anticipated to hit shelves in the coming months via NIKE SNKRS & SELECT RETAILERS, don’t miss the chance to cop a slice of legacy by staying locked to the Release Page!
ORIGINAL ARTICLE 15/07/24: Listen up, a legendary comeback is on the horizon: the Wu-Tang Clan Dunk High is making a serious return in 2024! We’re just as gassed as you. These kicks first dropped back in ’99, and let us tell you, they were rarer than a sunny day in London. Only 36 pairs hit the streets, causing sneaker enthusiasts to lose their minds (and wallets) over them.
Fast forward to 2024, and Nike’s teasing us once again with the return of these bad boys. They’ve even got a clip up on Instagram showing the Dunks swarmed by bees – a nod to the Clan’s ‘Killa Bees’ crew.
This pair mirrors the colour scheme of the original Nike Dunk High Iowa, which debuted in 1985 as part of Nike’s ‘Be True to Your School’ collection, featuring team colours from colleges across the US. When the Swoosh reissued the collection in 1998 and 1999, the black and yellow Dunk caught the eye of the Wu-Tang Clan, perfectly matching their unique aesthetic.
Good news is, Nike is teasing a broader release this time around. That means more chances for all of us to snag a piece of hip-hop and sneaker history! They’re slated to drop AUTUMN 2024, so get those wallets ready and your internet tabs open, because we’re betting that they won’t be last long on the shelves.
