Nike adds a new iteration of the iconic Dunk Low sneaker model for the season that is updated by a Leopard Swoosh as the branding detail. This can be seen on the lateral side of the shoe and is entirely made with recycled materials for a sustainable mindset.
It has a white leather base foundation for a crisp look and is then detailed with a range of olive green to add neutral and earthy hues. The Swoosh panel on the side adds a contrasting hue that rests against the green and white -- all of which sits on top of a white midsole foundation and black outsole. It is rounded out by green laces to finish the look.
