July 15, 2021

FTC’s refreshing take on Nike SB‘s Dunk low is inspired by sentō bathhouses. The cultural reference is a direct nod to Kent Uyehara’s Japanese roots. Enamel detailing and a clear sole give this release a luxury feel, which will certainly stand out as a memorable addition to the Dunk’s lineage. Learn more about FTC’s origin story above. The shoe drops at the shop on Friday, and will be available via SNKRS on Monday.

UPDATE 07.15.21: The above edit in support of the release dropped today. It definitely adds a bit more color to the lifestyle aspect of the shoe’s theme.
