Dover Street Market (DSM), the renowned streetwear and fashion retailer, has a well-established reputation for its unwavering commitment to all-black apparel and footwear. This design philosophy translates with varying degrees of success across different silhouettes. While some shoes undeniably benefit from the stealthy aesthetic, on others, the “murdered-out” treatment adds little beyond the signature DSM ribbon label. Their latest collaboration, however, strikes a chord – the Nike Zoom Vomero 5 “All-Black” perfectly embodies the dark and technical essence of the shoe, and the subtle modifications by DSM add a touch of distinct character.

Inspired by the visionary Rei Kawakubo, founder of Comme des Garçons, DSM once again employs a head-to-toe blackout treatment on the Zoom Vomero 5. A subtle sheen graces the exterior overlay, offering a hint of textural contrast against the inky depths. The Swoosh logo takes on a slightly bolder presence compared to the standard Vomero 5s, thanks to a double-layered construction that adds visual weight.
Detailed studio shots unveil the shoe’s intricacies – the most notable being the modified DSM logo on the tongue and heel, which features a skewed perspective for a touch of playful subversion. While an official release date remains under wraps by Dover Street Market, New Zealand retailer Shelflife confirmed a surprise drop on June 12th, offering local customers a chance to snag a pair before the global release at DSM locations worldwide.
