Though they differ in many ways, the Nike Dunk Low and Air Force 1 Low share many similarities in how they can utilize their panels for color blocking. Despite this, we rarely see the two crossovers on identical color schemes, but for the former's next, we see it mirror the color-blocking and construction of its Air Force 1 peer revealed earlier this month.
The Dunk Low echoes the Air Force 1's diverse spectrum of blues juxtaposed against stark white elements, embodying a contemporary and familiar aesthetic. The sections are neatly color-blocked, mirroring the AF1's design cues: the vibrant royal blue enriches the toe box, eyestays, and tongue, contributing a refreshing burst of color.
Adding to this tonal dance, navy quarter panels, laces, and tongue tags sync seamlessly with the royal blue sections, building a harmonious rhythm across the sneaker. This vibrant scheme is anchored by a darker blue that decorates the underfoot, reflective of the midsole lettering and rubber outsole in the Air Force 1.
Further enriching the palette is a gentle touch of baby blue (Football Grey), subtly gracing the Swoosh and heel overlays alongside the liner. This soft hue adds another dimension to the design, complementing the medley of darker blues. White elements, a staple in Dunk Low aesthetics, brighten up the toe box, mid panel, and midsole, offering a crisp contrast to the blue elements and rounding off the design on a traditional note.
These new Dunks are expected to land on Nike.com on November 29, retailing at $115; Update: Pairs have arrived early on Finish Line.
