Nike has announced the release of its Dunk High 'Toasty' in a brand new 'Cherry Blossom Pink' colorway. The tonal and heavily textured sneaker will be added to Nike's eco-friendly 'Move To Zero' product line.
Similar to Nike's previous earthy-colored 'Toasty' model, these sneakers also draw inspiration from nature. Specifically, the delicate textures and soft pinks of Japanese cherry blossom trees. The shoe's uppers feature a thick, recycled material that mimics the look of a winter jacket. Meanwhile, its side panels are dressed in a similarly textured fabric, donning light pink and white hues.
Alternatively, the classic Nike swoosh, heel tabs, and eyelets are all delivered in a pink suede. In addition, these high tops come equipped with a winter-ready fleece sock liner, 'Sunburst' logos, and soles constructed using 'Nike Grind' material.
