20 Years of Collaboration Inspires CLOT’s “WHAT THE?” Nike Dunk

As part of CLOT’s ongoing 20 year anniversary celebrations, the brand is gearing up to release its third Nike Dunk collaboration in a matter of months.

CLOT’s latest Dunk low represents a culmination of 17 years of collaboration, spanning an equally impressive lineup of 17 sneakers that have all been fused together for CLOT’s take on the “WHAT THE?” design configuration.

“WHAT THE?” Dunks are something of a must where Swoosh connoisseurs are concerned, with great hits such as the highly collectible 2007 SB version and famed skater Paul Rodriguez’s “What the Paul” aging like fine wines in the sneaker world.

The only criteria to create a “WHAT THE?” Dunk is history and luckily for CLOT, there is plenty to draw on from its array of releases with Nike. 

Details from such pairs as the 2006 Air Max 1 "Kiss of Death", the 2012 Tennis Classic AC TZ Museum, the Terracotta Warriors-inspired Air Jordans from 2018 and 2021, and of course, the series of Air Force 1s featuring CLOT’s iconic Silk Royale pattern and tearaway uppers each embody a significant moment in sneaker culture since the early 2000s.

As a homage to the many CLOT x Nike releases that have solidified the brand’s influence on sneaker culture in the last two decades, CLOT is introducing an exclusive set of trading cards to accompany the release.

</br>

The cards consist of 23 designs, including 17 base cards dedicated to each of the iconic sneakers that inspired the headlining shoe, four parallel cards and two numbered autograph cards each bearing a printed signature and a hard-signed version from CLOT Founder and Creative Director Edison Chen.

The CLOT x Nike “WHAT THE?” Dunk will release on July 29th at select JUICE selling doors worldwide.
