Detailed Looks at the Nike SB Dunk Mid “Griffey”

Nike SB’s skate-shop exclusive Orange Label initiative continues to punch out bangers for their local clientele, with the next offering interestingly inspired by Ken Griffey Jr.’s most significant signature shoe – the Nike Air Griffey Max 1— in it’s iconic “Freshwater” colorway.

The OG turf trainer debuted back in ’96, arriving in colors that matched his then-Mariners unis. This release carries an unmistakable influence, mimicking the slugger’s OG by-way-of teal uppers, black overlays, and bold white Swooshes. Midfoot straps are the dead giveaway, with The Kid’s #24 replaced by numero 58, referring Nike SB’s curated design program created in partnership with skate-shop employees from stores of distinction.

Pairs are pegged for release in select skate stores this April — but with the current global crisis surrounding COVID-19, things may likely change. As with any Orange Label release, it’s always best to check in with your local for details.
