John Kim A series of unofficial Spider-Man Dunks have surfaced over the years, but none have a connection as apparent as this upcoming release exclusively for kids.
This newly revealed version of the Dunk Low sees spiderweb graphics covering the grey toe-box and mid-panel, strongly alluding to its connection to the web-slinger. A stark black leather upper and midsole suggests a link to the Black Suit, the most notorious of Peter Parker’s costume overhauls in history. Dark Grey appears on the Swoosh logo and the outsole to complete the look.
To be completely clear, these Dunks are not a collaboration with the Marvel character, but it’s hard to ignore that Nike is letting the public make that association. Had the Swoosh been colored with white, the tie-up to the symbiote suit would be very obvious.
In fact, not only did Nike not go with the white Swoosh, but they Olive to give it a reflective finish. Hit it with flash, and the logo lights up white JORDAN actual Black Spider-Man suit.

A Brief History Of Spider-Man Dunks
The “Black Spider-Man” Dunks are not the first instance where Nike may have made an indirect connection to the popular web-slinging hero. In early 2023, Nike released another kids Dunk in the classic Spider-Man colors of royal blue and red, with grey Swooshes copying the color of Peter Parker’s webs.
Later in 2023, Nike revealed another Dunk Low with similar blue/red accents, but on a black leather base. Many JORDANned this colorway to the costume worn by Miles Morales.
