Nike offers a new tonal iteration of the signature Dunk Low sneaker model for the season with the new dark palette Graffiti colorway. The shoes boast multiple hues across the upper in a spray-painted visual effect complete with navy leather overlaying on top.
There is a lack of the usual Swooshes by the midfoot and branding then makes its way to the sneaker at the tongue tags and the NIKE embroidery by the heel sections in a muted gray. Rounding out the sneaker are the graffiti-themed printed insoles as a nod to the overarching theme. It all sits on top of crisp white midsoles and a light gray tonal rubber outsole. The spray-painted details throughout the upper fuse together hues of yellow and navy blue.
