Dunk High LE UNLV Sneakers

Released in 1999 as part of the Limited Edition series, the Nike Dunk High “UNLV” pays tribute to the University of Nevada, Las Vegas with a bold red and silver colorway. The silhouette captures the transition of the Dunk from basketball performance shoe to lifestyle icon—a shift that helped define sneaker culture at the turn of the millennium.

Crafted with red and metallic silver uppers, this pair epitomizes Nike’s late-’90s focus on collegiate heritage and stylistic versatility. The “LE” designation signifies its limited-edition production, making it especially collectible among Dunk enthusiasts. Their official colorway is Silver and Varsity Red.

Nike Dunks were originally introduced in 1985 as basketball shoes before evolving into lifestyle icons. By 2002, Nike had adapted the Dunk for skateboarding, cementing its place in street culture. Pharrell Williams himself has a deep history with the model—collaborating with Nike in 2004 to create a limited Artist Series Dunk, released in only 1,050 pairs worldwide.

This lot is accompanied by a Certificate of Ownership verifying that the shoes are from Pharrell Williams’ private collection.
