[Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smokey-mauve) offers a new tonal iteration of the signature [Dunk Low sneaker](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dunk-low-sneaker-6) 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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/university-blue-1) 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.
