As UNDERCOVER returns to Nike Slam Dunk High, they ditch the jungle-inspired aesthetic from years ago, as well as the fictional UBA apparel they created in 2021. For spring and summer, Jun Takahashi took a more minimalist approach, using black and white to dress up the aforementioned silhouette. Unfortunately, only the former has access to retailers and Nike's SNKRS market. All the beloved UC themes are here, and branded and speckled shoes are the norm. Quite a bit of the construction - aside from these parts - is covered in black surfaces, their texture alternating between smooth and tumbled leather. Then, light up the entire heel in white, revealing a series of classic UNDERCOVER themes. "Chaos/Balance", for starters, is magnified at the heel; however, when "CHAOS" is typed in English, "BALANCE" is replaced with the German counterpart "GLEICHGEWICHT". Also, "NEUES LEBEN" (New Life) is written in the overhead.
