Nike introduces the newest iteration of the Dunk Low silhouette for women in a Barely Green colorway palette. This is spotlighted by light pastel hues, prepared for the warmer seasons. The seasonally appropriate shoe is constructed from leather materials and rooted with light green colors throughout.

This can be seen making up the toe box, the quarter, and the collar. A slightly darker color can be seen making up the heel section, the eye stays, and the mudguard. The blend of green is contrasted by a pale Swoosh with a Crimson Tint color. The same Crimson Tint can be seen making up the nylon tongue. Rounding out the shoe are the Sail tonal laces and the tonal Nike logo embroidered onto the back.
