This shoe is simply known as the 'Cinco De Mayo' Dunk, released in Mexico during May 2005 to coincide in celebration of 'Cinca de Mayo' festival in Mexico, on 5th May each year, since 1862.

What is 'Cinco De Mayo'?

On May 5th, 1862, cannons boomed and rifle shots rang out as the French soldiers attacked the two forts. Before the day was over, one fort was in ruins and more than a thousand French soldiers were dead. The Mexicans had won the battle, but not the war. Yet, this date was established as symbolic of the Mexicans' courage against a formidable army.

Designed by ESSJ in traditional Mexican colors, each pair comes laced up with red laces and an extra set of brown laces with Zoom-Air innersoles.
