Nike unveils a new tonal iteration of the Dunk Low sneaker model with the Cacao Wow colorway palette to join its roster. The latest palette is set to launch officially on July 10th and will be available on the Nike SNKRS app and then StockX following for resale.
Cacao Wow is led by a minimal design language throughout the upper complete with brown and white accents throughout in a premium leather build. It sits on top of a cream tonal midsole foundation and the sole, tongue, and sock lining are complete with matching accents. Branding can be seen on the heel tab, tongue tab, and Swoosh on the side of the shoe, as per usual. Notably, the Cacao Wow is only available in women's sizing.
