The Yuto Horigome x Nike SB Dunk Low ‘Asparagus’ is set to launch in Spring 2025, featuring a distinct blend of bold design and high-performance functionality. This second collaboration between the Tokyo-born skater and Nike SB reflects his growing presence in both the sport and streetwear culture. Known for balancing function with aesthetics, Horigome’s latest creation delivers a design rooted in earthy inspiration, with shades resembling asparagus to give the shoe a unique visual identity. With performance elements like Zoom Air cushioning and reinforced suede construction, the sneaker is built for skaters while appealing to collectors who appreciate thoughtful design.
Visually, the ‘Asparagus’ colorway makes a bold statement. A ‘Light Khaki’ suede base serves as the foundation, while ‘Asparagus’ green suede panels bring an earthy vibrancy to the sneaker. The addition of a ‘Legion Green’ leather Swoosh adds depth, contrasting the shoe’s suede textures, while a ‘Sesame’ back tab introduces another layer of detail. Horigome’s personal touch is evident with his signature cross-feather logo stamped on the lateral heel, reinforcing his connection to the design.
Beyond aesthetics, the Yuto Horigome Asparagus Dunks are built with performance in mind, catering to skateboarders with Nike’s Zoom Air technology in the midsole, ensuring responsive cushioning that absorbs impact while maintaining board feel. The return of the fan-favorite “fat tongue” offers extra padding, enhancing comfort and support during high-impact tricks.
The SB Dunks showcase intricate design touches, including speckled overlays that add texture and visual depth. Accompanied by special packaging and extra laces, the release offers opportunities for customization, inviting wearers to personalize their style. These thoughtful elements enhance the sneaker’s appeal, transforming it from a high-performance skate shoe into a coveted piece for collectors.
Scheduled for release in Spring 2025, the Yuto Horigome x Nike SB Dunk Low ‘Asparagus’ will retail for $130 and be available through Nike’s SNKRS app and select skate shops worldwide. With the continued popularity of SB Dunk models and the success of Horigome’s earlier collaborations, the demand for this drop is expected to be high.
