A drop that has never received much hype due to it’s lack of re-releases, the Dynasty model is still one of the legends of the 80’s basketball reign and is back once again, this time in the original 1981 silhouette.  Besides differently a layout for the paneling there was also the addition of an ankle strap. Overseeing a strict rule over the colourways and materials to keep one of the blueprint high tops true to it’s first drop.

To make up for it Nike has brought back the original Nike Dynasty ‘81 Hi this year. Nike roll out the usual colour suspects with black, grey, white and varsity red all featuring heavily.  But the ace in this double pack lies in the materials with premium leathers of the coated, nubuck and patent variety add a new dimension to a style that we will probably see more of in 2010.
