Nike Dunk Low History

The silhouette designed by Peter Moore almost 37 years ago has spent years practically in the background, but it has become the favorite of sneakerheads in the past few years. The origins of this silhouettes goes back to 90s skateboarding era when Nike SB debuted. It all started when Virgil Abloh, the king of streetwear, chose them as favorites for a collaboration with Off White. The rest is history. Since its launch in late 2019, the Nike Dunk has become the most popular silhouette to wear the Swoosh. All of their releases without exception sell out, many of them in a matter of minutes.

Nike Dunk Low Design

When it comes to the design of this popular sneakers, it’s a very simple one with some cool finishing touches. The clean lines are their biggest characteristic. The smooth leather upper is combined with overlays that wrap around the toe and heel. The Nike branding can be found both on the woven tongue tag and heel tab.
