Shoe-Ryu-Ken!

Here at Otaku But Gangsta, we have a soft spot in our heart for sneakers. Especially Nike Dunks, which come in a variety of styles and colors, so no matter who you are or what you like, odds are there is a Dunk that fits your personality (or wardrobe.) As an owner of about 10 pairs of Dunks myself, I was pretty excited to hear Nike is releasing a series of Dunks inspired by Street Fighter characters. OBG reader Geeyo, who's sneaker knowledge would put most to shame, tips us off on Nike's Street Fighter Dunk lineup, which includes Ryu and Chun-Li colorways. Unconfirmed but completely plausible are also M. Bison and Ken colorways as well. 

My favorite of the bunch are the Ryu hurricane kicks, the tattered Swoosh is absolutely spot on to his bandana! And I also needed a new pair of white base sneakers. No confirmed release date on these yet, but we're thinking 3rd-4th quarter 2010. Which character would you like to see get the Nike Dunk treatment? Let us know in the comments.
