Nike Launches a Black Flax Colorway of the Dunk High Sneakers

— August 9, 2022 — Lifestyle
Nike introduces a new tonal palette for the fall season with the new Black Flax colorway that is seen adorning the classic Dunk High sneaker model. It has a color-blocking design language that blends together the colors black, flax, Vachetta Tan, and white across the upper.

It has a full leather construction for a premium feel including the leather tongue tags and insoles in order to truly elevate the look of the shoe. It is spotlighted by a darker tan at the branding for a contrasting hue. The entire shoe sits on top of a crisp white midsole foundation for a touch of tonal contrast and it is rounded out by a black rubber outsole.
