UNION × DUNK LOW SP. IF7380-001 Off Noir. IF7380-200 Bamboo. $135. Autumn 2026. Japan day still open.

Union LA and Nike put the Dunk Low back on an SP ticket as a two-color pack. IF7380-001 is Off Noir / Off Noir / University Gold / Dark Ash. IF7380-200 is Bamboo / Bamboo / University Gold / Light Cream. Ticket printed $135. Window is autumn 2026. Japan date unlisted. SNKRS and Union doors are the expected first line. Confirm yen and the hour on Nike Japan when the SNKRS tile lights.

This is the second Union Dunk Low after the 2022 Passport Pack. That pack was loud travel graphics. This one is shh: embossed UNION on the tongue, expose stitch at the toe, a small fabric tag above it, University Gold as the accent metal. Recent photo of Bamboo add a heel that folds down so the pair can sit like a mule. Treat that heel as part of the leak last until Nike’s PDP locks it.

Signal. What happened: Union × Nike dated Dunk Low SP Off Noir and Bamboo for autumn 2026. Exact product: IF7380-001 and IF7380-200, $135. When and where: Union LA, SNKRS, select doors. Japan TBD. Source: style codes and $135 ticket. Why it matters: a shop that already broke the Dunk once is breaking the heel this time. Earlier DRIFT: none on IF7380.

stir

Peter Moore’s Dunk Low is the last. Low collar. Panel leather or suede. Cupsole. Union’s job is the overlay language, not a new shape. Embossed tongue logo is the cleanest shop mark. Expose stitch at the toe is the construction show. Fabric tab above the stitch is the extra Union sentence. University Gold hits both colorways so the pack reads as a pair even when one is black and one is olive.

Off Noir is the dark stack: black on black, gold, dark ash. Bamboo is olive suede with cream and the same gold. Photograph each lateral. A top-down grid will flatten both into “another Dunk.” Suede on Bamboo will mark. Noir leather or nubuck will crease at the vamp. Neither is a defect. Both are Dunk.

$135 is Dunk money, not Jordan 1 Union money. That number is the point. Passport Pack sat in a hotter Dunk market. This pack arrives after length of Dunk fatigue. The shop is betting restraint and a move heel against that fatigue.

Fit is standard Dunk Low. People who live in the last stay true. People who only wear wide trail shoes should try on. A fold-down heel, if production keeps it, changes how the collar sits when you walk. Try it up and down before you decide the size.

idea

A Dunk heel is a basketball wrap. Folding it turns the shoe into a slide with laces. That is a 2020s habit other houses already ran on different lasts. On a Union Dunk it is the only structural argument. If the production pair keeps a lock so the heel stays up on court days, it is a two-mode shoe. If the fold is decoration that sags, it is a photo.

Chris Gibbs’s shop has spent a decade treating Nike archives as editorial objects. Jordan 1s with mismatched panels. Cortez experiments. Field General. The Dunk is the mass last. Making it shh and then breaking the heel is consistent with that file: do less tincture do one mechanical joke.

rel

Autumn 2026 is the printed season. Mid-September chatter already pushed some writers toward holiday. Until SNKRS dates a Thursday, treat it as autumn and watch Union’s own site. Japan will lag or land the same weekend. Lottery first at Union LA is the historical pattern. Popular sizes (9 to 11) leave first on any Dunk.
