Yuto Horigome's second Dunk has officially arrived. The prolific Japanese skateboarder is known for composing strong lines and landing big tricks in big moments. His quiet determination and effortless flow make his skate game a pleasure to watch.
For this edition, the upper balances a mix of Light Khaki suede with Asparagus and Legion Green leather overlays. Slight speckling on the Asparagus panels adds to the shoe's overall earthy aesthetic. Yuto included his family crest on the lateral heel as a nod to his family and Japanese heritage. For the fellow riders in the room, this Dunk Low comes equipped with plush padding and a heel Air Zoom unit for cushioned comfort during hard charges and heavy landings.
