Nike's Dunk Low Rooted in Peace Design Nods to Earthy Themes
Nike introduces its newest iteration of the Dunk Low sneaker model with 'Rooted in Peace.' This colorway is a direct celebration of traditional Japanese gardening. The upper is made using a blend of both denim and suede materials for textural contrast.
The denim makes up the underlying toe boxes, the paneling, and the quarters, which are all coated in a black hue. The suede material is seen making up the overlays in a light tan color for some contrast. There are also hints of white that can be seen at the laces, the Swoosh, and the Sashiko style stitching at the back and the quarter paneling. Jade green finishes up the design along with some peace sign motifs.
