    Asphaltgold presents Nike Dunk Hi SP *Iowa*.

    "Be true to your school" was the legendary campaign motto under which Nike established the Dunk as a team shoe in 1985. The brand from Beaverton assigned various U.S. universities their own colorway, creating a completely new sense of identity and unmistakable recognition value for the respective teaching institution. The basketball teams of Johns & NC State, Kentucky, Michigan, Syracuse, UNLV, Villanova, Georgetown and Iowa were pleased to receive their signature dunk.

    "Black/Varsity Maize" is the official name of the black and yellow colorway of the Iowa Hawkeyes' dunk, which is now making a long-awaited comeback. The first Retro was released in 1999 and helped the shoe, which is also often referred to as the "Goldenrod," to become very popular among sneakerheads, not least thanks to an exclusive Friends & Family version with a Wu-Tang Clan logo on the heel. After another retro was launched in 2005 to mark the 20th anniversary of the "Be true to your school" collection, the time has finally come again in 2020: the Nike Dunk Hi SP *Iowa* is back!

    Let the drums roll!

    For the return of such a top-class shoe, we have of course come up with something special! In the tradition of American drumlines, which are a fixed element at sporting events in the USA, we had a drum ensemble perform on a track specially produced for the video - including outfits and instruments in black and yellow Iowa style!

    The Nike Dunk Hi SP *Iowa* will be available from us from 09.12.2020. We're also including Iowa-branded drumsticks with each pair.
