There was a solid six-month stretch where our fashion-focused social media feed was filled with fake AI-generated images of Nike sneakers made from LEGO. Well, the time has come, and we're pleased to say that those viral images have sparked a genuine partnership as LEGO Group and Nike have revealed the first products and experiences as part of their multi-year partnership, which will include a LEGO® Nike Dunk, Nike Air Max Dn x LEGO Collection, and Nike Dunk Low x LEGO Collection.
Purist LEGO aficionados might turn their noses at the bricks being turned into marketing tools, but LEGO has continued to see a meteoric rise in recent years as brands like McLaren, Levi's, and IKEA have collaborated with the Billund, Denmark-based company.
If you're keen to get your hands on the LEGO Nike collection, then you won't have to wait long. The first LEGO product goes on sale on July 1st, 2025 with the 1180-piece LEGO® Nike Dunk set. Designed for those aged 10 and up, the set features a Nike Dunk, rotatable brick basketball toy and iconic 'Dunk' slogan that you can build, rebuild and display. Nike will then release a few more LEGO sneakers and a line of apparel and accessories. Let's take a closer look at all of the releases below!

Then, it will be Nike's turn, and the first products will go on sale starting on August 1st, 2025, beginning with the Nike Air Max Dn x LEGO® Collection and line of apparel and accessories. It will be followed on September 1st 2025, by the Nike Dunk Low x LEGO® Collection, and more Nike footwear and apparel will be unveiled throughout the year, with information to come.
