Nike has graced the world for over 50 years, celebrating this milestone anniversary in 2022. While celebrations for this specific anniversary have passed, Nike still finds time to recall its historical roots, as seen with an all-new Nike Dunk Low featuring "Since 1972" branding. This particular model takes a nod from the rugged aesthetics of hiking footwear, perfect for those who appreciate a blend of street style and outdoor functionality.
The Nike Dunk Low Since 1972 Tan Brown embraces a robust and earthy color scheme, consisting of tan, brown, and subtle hints of vibrant colors. The upper features a cracked leather reminiscent of cork, setting a rustic tone on the toe and midfoot. This look is complemented by luxurious brown suede that wraps around the collar, enhancing the sneaker's textural contrast.
The overlays of premium tan leather on the mudguard, eyestays, heel, and the iconic Swoosh add a touch of class, while the two-tone laces in brown and yellow underscore its outdoor-inspired look. Notably, the heel and insole brandish the Since 1972 branding, split between blue on the left and red on the right, creating a visually engaging narrative of Nike's legacy. This theme continues with a co-branded hangtag. A gum rubber outsole rounds out the design, promising durability and traction that echoes the shoe's utilitarian roots.
The Nike Dunk Low Since 1972 Tan Brown will release in Fall 2024 through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Priced at $125, this sneaker will be available in men's sizing.
