Quartersakcs introduces a new tonal iteration of the iconic Nike SB Dunk Low sneaker model in the Reverse Zebra colorway update. The monochromatic color palette has black and white hues across the silhouette with inspiration drawn from Debbie's Zebra Cakes, which is a notable snack in skateboarding culture.
The animal pattern can be seen detailing the toe boxes, the collars, and the quarters. On top of the base are the overlays that are done in white to offset the patterning. The Swoosh on the side of the sneaker is done in a black hue to add more grounded tones. Touches of red add a bright touch of contrast and can be seen on the tongue's Nike branding and the "QS25' on the lateral heel.
