The SB Dunk Low
At the Yūto Horigome X Nike Sb Dunk Low we get a cool and various celebrity sneakers. The gray Mudguard runs over the entire sneaker to the rear and is made of a strong suede, matching the theme of the skateboard. As a basis, a white leather was used as the basis, of course the color fits perfectly with the gray. The Nike Swoosh was all around the Yūto Horigome X Nike Sb Dunk Low placed, in a dark beige color. On the heel, colors in the form of a strong brown and a light pink prevail again. Nike is in thick letters on the rosan baking tab, we already know the stick from various other models and it is usually always there.

My opinion on the sneaker
The Yūto Horigome X Nike Sb Dunk Low Is a very wild colorway and I haven't known the skater so far because I am not too much in the game, but I have to say that he is so sympathetic to the interviews. Of course he can also skate, of course - but for me more counts whether I like someone than his sporting success. I am always available for a SB Dunk with a special design and some cool features, they are comfortable and can stand really a lot. The only problem could be the gray Suede Mudguard if it gets wet. Otherwise I am a big fan and I will surely continue to follow Yūto Horigome!
