There’s a popular saying amongst graffiti writers notorious for tagging in any and all weather — you don’t need an umbrella when you have Gore-Tex. They don’t make umbrellas for your feet (yet), but with these Gore-Tex dunks, who needs ‘em?
The latest colorway in Nike’s Dunk Low GTX series is a weather-ready triple black, with two-tone waterproof black leather placed on the upper. Gore-Tex branding gets prominent placement, recessed into the lateral side of the toe panel and hanging from the lateral Swoosh tag. The inner lining is all Gore-Tex, and the traditional perforated toebox is covered to make sure every inch of the shoe is waterproof.
