Before Nike By You existed under that name, the iD programme let designers outside the company build one-off Dunks, and a handful of those escaped into small production runs for events. This is one: a Dunk High made for a magazine's convention in New York, produced as a numbered edition capped at four hundred pairs. The design puts illustrated cowboys in various poses across the side panel, with the maker's mark embossed at the heel, a graphic treatment far removed from the panelled colour-blocking the Dunk was built around. White with reflective silver and team red keeps the base restrained enough that the illustrations read clearly. Numbered event releases at this scale rarely surface, which is why this one is more often discussed than seen.
