[Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dunk-low-panda-1) has unveiled the 'Re-Raw,' a new colorway for the brand's high-top '[Dunk](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dark-team-red)' sneaker. This colorway uses washed-out colors such as olive, coriander, and a faded 'Team Red.' The toe vamp, top of the heel, and middle of the upper are covered in an eggshell white [cracked leather material](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nike-5). The remainder of the upper features dark, coriander-colored suede accents that are stylized to look fuzzy and aged.

The laces of the shoe feature a boldened yellow 'Sail' color, and the insole of the shoe features a washed-out Team Red color. Lastly, Nike's signature Swoosh logo is visible on the upper in a dark olive color. When these aged, faded colors are put together and combined with intentionally scuffed leather and suede, the shoe looks astonishingly retro while using a modern silhouette.
