After being previewed by skater Kevin Perez, Nike has now dropped official images of their upcoming Nike SB Dunk High Pro “Doraemon”. The classic anime-inspired skate shoes are slated to arrive later next month.
The shoes appear just as they were first teased, with pebbled white leather toe boxes, ankle collars, and side panels that mimic Doraemon’s belly and face while baby blue suede adorns the rest of the overlays to match the mascot’s famous shade of fur. Red laces, ankle lining, and Swooshes are nods to the character’s nose collar and tail. But the most clever detail has to the be the gold accents on the tongue and tongue tag which mimic the golden bell around Doraemon’s collar and the hidden stash pocket behind the tongue that pays homage to his infinite “4D” pocket from the anime.
