Nike's Dunk High Sneakers Get a Blend of Textural Upates
Sportswear giant Nike introduces yet another tonal iteration of the Dunk High sneaker model with a spotlight on the textures of the silhouette this time around. It is made using traditional smooth leather throughout the upper and has tumbled leather that panels throughout.
This textural touch can be seen making up the collars, the quarters, and the toe boxes of the sneaker. It is done in an off-white hue and the smooth leather can be seen in a light beige color. The Swoosh branding on the lateral side of the shoe is made using patent leather and done so in a brown hue for a deeper tonal look and shiny finish. The interior lining is complete in a pastel green to round it all out.
