Ultimate Glory Nike Dunk High
The Ultimate Glory Energy Event will be held in October 2nd, and Nike hooked up some limited edition Dunks for this event. They will be limited to 606 pairs, peep the info below.
Dubbed after the epic June 1996 bout of Mexican boxing legend Julio Cesar Chavez and then rising star Oscar De La Hoya, come the appropriately titled Ultimate Glory dunks. Paying tribute, each shoe features both fighters names embroidered at the heels combined with a red cement print upper. The solid color scheme is very reminiscent of the bloodshed by Julio Cesar, which pre-maturely stopped the fight in the 4th round. Commemorating this historical event, Nike will release 606 pairs at the Nike Sportswear store in Mexico City on October 3rd, 2008 with a pre-sale beginning on September 26th. Although regional exclusives have released in the states before, these look to be made exclusively for the Mexican people. via Hypebeast

These are so FREAKIN SWEET!!! The remind of the Hurfquakes. I really like they way they took they did red and the laces. It would look even sweeter if the Nike check was white with white laces, but these go perfect with my Gucci Rag and shirt.
What is the deal with Mexico exclusives??? WTF!
On another note these are cool but a lil overdose on the elephant print…sometimes ‘less is more’.
HAHA i need this. without the names in the back.
Too much red for me main.. Do NOT pass go>>>>
I’m straight!
G-roc can you please help me and tell me how I can find where the Nike sportswear store is in mexico

Can anyone tell me …what has Mexico done to get exclusive releases?

Absolutely sick! I would love to have these. I already have a fitted in mind to wear with them.
Love em more for the concept and from being a boxing fan than the actual finished product….
^Word Mike….These should be called the Dunk Period’s Highs or Dunk That Time of Month Highs….LoL…how ridiculous are these things…listen kids if you want red cement stick to them Levi Jordan 1 and leaves these things with the tampons….I will say this big ups to Nike for bitting Supra with the Red wax laces…(Details are so important)
These are nasty…why are sights calling these SBs though???…Mexico only release though…anyone got that Mexican connect(the legal kind)?

@ nike_04 – According to your logic North Carolina should get loads of exclusive releases for producing the greatest Nike athlete ever (aka Michael Jordan)—> but we all know that NEVER happens!

That the problem with you little kids on blogs….do you even know what Wax laces are?? Have you ever seen wax laces??? I cop more sneakers in a month then the number of years you been living on this planet homie….I was already lining up at Dr Jays for Ewing 33’s, Jordan 1’s, and Fila’s when you was watching Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles begging ya moms to play in the sandbox….And just so you understand how ridiculous you sound, Chuck’s (Converse, which is where the name came from) actually started wayyyyy before Nike…dude go ready a histoy book then come back with something intelligent to say….
C Brown Ok wax who F*ckin care’s buy or don’t buy them and for the record I’m old skool bug’s bunny baby…
cool, reminds me of classic boxing gloves, like the everlast ones or what not.
ha! ^^C Brown, hit em with some knowledge
omg, wish i could get a pair shipped!!!
this is just too much red. and probably too much cement. and LOL/thanks to C Brown for putting people back in there place who just like to talk shit, but speaking of talking shit. nikehead5 if you change that damn name maybe you’ll get a # for Mexico. damn poser
