Nike's Dunk Low Sneakers Get a New Graffiti Iteration

— March 31, 2022 — Lifestyle
Nike introduces a new Graffiti iteration of the signature Dunk Low sneaker model for the season. This time around, the shoe's upper is made from a blend of tumbled leather that can be seen overlaying the shoe with canvas at the toe box sections and collar area.

There is a fusion of orange applied to imitate the look of spray paint to create that vandalized effect. The branded Swoosh on the lateral side of the shoe is coated in a 3M material for a reflective look and the insoles follow the same theme. On the interior, there are graffiti-inspired graphics that are made to nod to the brand overall and it is rounded out with speckled details.
