The Los Angeles Lakers 2021-22 NBA season came to an abrupt end when they missed the playoffs in early April. That doesn’t stop the die-hard fans from continuing to rep their team during the off-season. Fresh for the summer is this all-new Lakers-themed colorway of the Nike Dunk High, perfect for those who rep the purple and gold.
The latest Nike Dunk High “Lakers” iteration comes in court purple, university gold and white. Featuring a classic all-leather upper, purple covers the overlays with gold on the underlays. More gold is found via the laces, tongue, tongue tag, and “Nike” branding on the insoles. A purple liner is paired with purple insoles and a purple solid rubber outsole. Rounding things out is white found via the inside tongue lining and classic midsole.
The Nike Dunk High Lakers is set to release in September 2022. It will drop at Nike as well as select retailers worldwide, both in-store and online. Coming in men’s, gradeschool, and preschool sizes, retail is set at $125, $105, and $85, respectively.
