Nike's Dunk Low Sneaker Gets a Friendship Knot Model
Nike introduces a new lifestyle silhouette model in the form of the Dunk Low silhouette with the Friendship Knot iteration to join its roster. The colorway palette is comprised of hues of Sail, Picante Red, Flax, and Pale Ivory throughout the structure. It is inspired by traditional friendship knots and the new version is made up of a unique insole unit that is stamped with instruction graphics on how to tie the symbolic knot.
This contributes to the overarching notion of unity with intricate craftsmanship defining the model followed by a web-stitched Swoosh logo to create a handwoven effect enhancing its artisanal visual. The model is complete with custom-trimmed laces and bespoke embroidered accents at the back.
