Nike is adapting its classic Dunk Low trainers for wet weather with a new GORE-TEX version in Camo Green. The low-top design offers a waterproof alternative to heavier winter boots, using treated leather to help keep feet dry on rainy days. The usual holes across the toe have also been replaced with small dimples to help stop water getting inside.
The trainers combine a mostly green design with durable canvas around the tongue and ankle, while bright yellow details on the sides add a pop of colour. The result keeps the familiar look of the Dunk while making it more suitable for unpredictable weather.
The Nike Dunk Low GORE-TEX is available now through Nike's website in men's sizes, priced at $155.
