What to know
ClosetKept AI- Beyond's 20th anniversary Nike SB Dunk High inspired by Scandinavian minimalist architect Alvar Aalto, approved by Aalto Foundation.
- White leather base with ivory suede overlays, sand suede Swooshes, dark blue patent leather collar, red outsoles.
- First SB Dunk High release in several years. Jyväskylä store July 8, Helsinki follow-up, global release late July 2026.
- Nike SB Dunk High dormant for years as low-tops dominated market; this revives the high-top silhouette for skaters.
UPDATE 7/3/26: Beyond has revealed their anniversary Nike SB Dunk High today, along with the inspiration behind the project. The shoe is designed to mimic Scandinavian minimalist design principles, most notably the architecture of Alvar Aalto, also a native of Beyond’s hometown of Jyväskylä in Finland. The shoe references his design through small details, and has been approved by the Alvar Aalto foundation in his memory.
Beyond will begin their release rollout on July 8th through their hometown location, followed by a second in-store drop at their Helsinki store. The global release will follow later this month.
The Nike SB Dunk High has been dormant for a few years now. Luckily, Finnish skate shop Beyond has chosen the model as a special release for their twentieth anniversary, dropping this Summer.
The Nike Dunk’s low-top version has become the go to in recent years, moving away from decades of domination by the model’s original high-top cut. Nike SB has followed suit, as most casual wearers and skaters seem to prefer a lower profile sneaker and the freedom of ankle movement that accompanies it. However, this does not mean the SB Dunk High is dead. This week, we have an early look at a special pair coming this Summer from the Finnish skate shop Beyond. Beyond was established back in 2006, and this pair is a part of their twentieth anniversary celebration. The look features a crisp white leather base with Ivory toned suede overlays. Swooshes are added in Sand suede, while a patent leather collar is applied in a dark Blue Void shade. Finally, dark red outsoles and custom printed footbeds complete the look.
