The Nike SB lottery is tough! But when and if you end up being selected, the vibes are unexplainable. These new Yuto Horigome Dunks are easily the most sought after Nike SB at the moment, and it only takes a few seconds scanning the comments to feel your own little bit of anxiety about it all.
People are happy, angry, anxious—a whirlwind of emotions. You get a lot of this, "And can already see the L I’m bout to catch in the #SNKRS app." And a lot of this, "SB OF THE YEAR." It's a rollercoaster. Lock yourself in and take the ride. These things are sick!

"I have completed my own shoe model with @nikesb the brand that I have loved since I was a kid!" said Yuto on Instagram. "I am really happy and excited about this because this is a project I have been dreaming of since I was little I am who I am today because of the support of my family, friends and everyone else, and I am so grateful that I cannot thank you all enough "
The sincerity is real. And if anyone deserves a personalized, signature Dunk, it's Yuto.
"I was able to add my original logo into the shoes, which is based of my family crest," he added. "The family crest in Japan signifies family members or blood relatives instead of one’s own name. It is believed that the 'Family Crest' began as a way to reveal the ownership of possessions."
Yuto is a beast and has been having another successful year. This is just another box to check. If you cop a pair, we salute you! If you're feeling optimistic—respect. Cross those fingers.
