Layered Low-Top Accented Sneakers

Nike's Dunk Low Gets a Layering Wolf Grey Colorway

Nike introduces a new tonal iteration of the notable Dunk Low sneaker model for the season with the minimal Wolf Grey colorway. The shoes are made from a blend of mesh and leather materials at the upper in a clean white hue before it is marked with new paneling layers on top.

It features the Wolf Grey color around the medial side of the forefoot, the upper eyestay panel, the heel, the collar, and the Swoosh branding detail on the lateral side. Black leather comes through at the overlaying details and the Swoosh borders at the medial side for some contrast. Additional contrast comes through in Lemon Twist for a bright touch applied through embroidery.
