Manufactured with blue suede uppers, this SB Dunk is rendered in white leather overlays that are given textural depth by grid-like patterns, which mimic the brick layering seen at Japanese baths. A metallic Swoosh is emblazoned on the side panel, the Swoosh extending out to meet the sunny borders on the sockliners and tongues. FTC branding appears on the heels and co-branded tongues, which have kanji on the rear. Down below, an icy blue outsole completes the collaboration.
