The Nike Dunk has lived many lives. From its early roots as a basketball sneaker worn by college hoopers around the USA, to its rebirth as a staple in the Nike Skateboarding line, to the modern era where seemingly everyone has a pair, there aren't many parts of the sneaker game that the Dunk hasn't been a part of. That won't be slowing down anytime soon, either. Today we look at 9 new Nike Dunk releases dropping this spring that all qualify as Thone-Worthy.

Nike Dunk Low "Jackie Robinson"

April 2022

Baseball themed laces and inspirations from the legendary Jackie Robinson, who was the first African American to play Major League Baseball, make these one of the most unique Dunk colorways of the year.

Nike Dunk Low "Black Panda"

Spring 2022

Panda dunks, known to the rest of the world simply as black and white Dunks, are a timeless color combo that never really go out of style. This spring, Nike is adding a new variation with an all black upper with white details and an impressive mix of materials.

Nike Dunk Low "Fossil Rose"

March 30 2022

The new "Fossil Rose" combines some new colors from Nike, including Phantom, Aura, Summit White, and this Dunk's namesake, Fossil Rose. If you're a fan of suede finishes, be ready for these to drop in low top form, as well as a flipped colorway on the Dunk High.

Nike Dunk Low "Cacao Wow"

Spring/Summer 2022

Nike took this upcoming "Cacao Wow" colorway a step further than most Dunk releases with a wild mix of materials and finishes that are worthy of the nickname.

Nike Dunk Low "Graffiti"

Spring/Summer 2022

While the colorway might not be obviously tied to the name, the "Graffiti" Dunk Low is definitely one of the more eye-catching of the upcoming Nike Dunk releases. The multicolor accent panels contrast the rest of the upper in a way that gives them a familiar feeling.

Nike Dunk Low "Setsuban"

March 2022

Inspired by Japanese celebration of the first day of spring, the "Setsuban" Dunk Low showcases the artwork of Utagawa Kuniyoshi and will release alongside a second Dunk from the same pack.

Nike Dunk High "The Seven Gods of Good Fortune"

March 2022

The second Dunk inspired by Japanese artist Utagawa Kuniyoshi, moves away from the illustrations on the upper and features the artist's namesake on the insoles. A closer look at the midsole reveals an interesting new take on the classic silhouette from Nike.

Nike Dunk High "Pearl Studs"

Spring 2022

These might end up being called "Pearly Whites" but don't let that make you think anything about teeth. Nike added pearl studs to this crispy white colorway of the Dunk and it's sure to be a must-have for some.

Nike Dunk Low "Valerian Blue"

Spring/Summer 2022

The last Dunk on our list might be the most spring-appropriate. The "Valerian Blue" Nike Dunk Low gets its name from the flower that is known across Europe and Asia. At least we hope it's named after the flower and not the terrible movie from 2017.
