NIKE DUNK LOW The Nike Dunk Low is the low version of Nike’s ubiquitous Dunk silhouette from 1985. While never a true performance sneaker like its predecessor, the Nike Dunk Low has always been a strong contender in the Retro realm, particularly within the Nike SB line.

Following up on our most recent preview of the Nike Dunk Low comes another pair that should hit retailers here in the States within the next few weeks. These utilize the same exact colorblocking pattern and distribution of materials as the yellow and navy blue edition, but achieve a much different effect thanks to a reversal of the saturation of overlay vs underlay sections. A stronger foreground in rich burgundy leather in addition to black Swooshes and heel badges gives these a decidedly more aggressive feel, but both designs will find their fair share of applications within a decently varied wardrobe. Click through so you can see more of this pair and stick with Sneaker News to find out when they hit US retailers. via mita sneakers

The Year of the Dragon begins on January 23rd and marks the earliest celebration of Chinese New Year since 1965. But in the sneakerhead world, the Water Dragon has made his mark well in advance of even the Gregorian calendar flip, starting all the way back in September when we first laid eyes on the LeBron 9 ‘China’. Zoom KD IV and Air Jordan 2012 colorways have popped up in the meantime, and it’d be a wise investment to wager on an Air Force 1 Low joining the fray, but today’s news is a kids-sized edition of the AF1′s biggest rival in the Nike Sportswear classics lineup. The Nike Dunk Low GS ‘Year of the Dragon’ loses the blue watery tones and instead opts for a black, red and gold colorup with lizard detailing on the overlay whose overall effect is both reptillian and reflects its country of origin. ’2012′ heel embroidery and a wicked dragon insole make these an interesting possibility for thsoe who can fit them, and you’ll see a series of detailed images when you click through on the jump below. via Ice Field

After a one year absence from the Aloha State, the NFL Pro Bowl returned to Honolulu in 2011. One thing that changed along with the venue was the special edition sneaker of choice given to the NFL’s elite players, as following up on 2010′s Trainer SC 2010, we got a look at a limited Nike Dunk Low that you’ll be hard pressed to get your hands on. This grey-on-white leather Dunk Low commemorated the game’s return to Hawaii with the islands embroidered onto the lateral heels, along with tons of details on the insoles, outsoles and heel tabs. The NFL regular season is nearing a close, and some of you may have your Pro Bowl 2012 picks in mind – Mr. Discount Double Check, Megatron, who else? These are one of the rarest Dunks created all year and you’re sure to be the only one in your hood wearing these if you pick them up from ozonecity on eBay.

Over the course of its quarter-century in the game, the Nike Dunk has released in probably more white-midsoled colorways than all the other versions combined, so how do you get some extra life out of such a standby blocking option? How about a vibrant outsole with another exuberant shade on the midsole stitch for good measure? That’s exactly what we’ve got here with this new Dunk Low GS, a model whose Metallic Silver and white upper is ever so slightly feminine when paired with the aforementioned Bright Turquoise and Laser Pink accents. You can see more of these after the jump to decide for which little sneakerheads they’re most appropriate, and let us know how these rank against the best kids Nikes we’ve seen in recent months. via Dunk

Given that the word ‘Aztec’ itself is something of a loose identifier used to describe a variety of 14th-16th century Mexican ethnic groups, it seems fitting that the Nike Sportswear collection inspired by their signature aesthetics seems to be growing organically and without a concrete limit. The latest addition to NSW’s Aztec Pack is this new Nike Dunk Low that offers a slightly different take on the same Ironstone, Grain and Imperial Blue palette we just saw on an Air Max 1 release. The key difference, silouhette aside, is the use of a blue Swoosh on these instead of beige on the AM1s, a shift that has these feeling a bit more vibrant than the comparatively earthy ’87. Click through so you can see these closer, let us know if they’re the best Aztec Pack design yet and stick with Sneaker News for word on the US release date. via Dunk

Toss in a gum outsole with the ubiquitous white Dunk midsole and you’ve got a recipe for success, of which you can get a taste by clicking on the jump below.
