Jovani Hernandez In addition to its corporate efforts, NIKE, Inc.’s “Move to Zero” initiative has trickled into its product production, creating partly-recycled sneakers like the newly-surfaced Nike Dunk Low Scrap in “Grey Haze.”
While far from being the only sustainable-oriented option, the upcoming pair indulges in a mix-and-match arrangement enabled by leftover materials throughout the Swoosh’s manufacturing floors. Thus, the latest take on Peter Moore’s iconic Nike Dunk indulges in non-traditional components and cuts throughout the overlays. For starters, smooth leather bases are replaced with breathable mesh, while suede swaths in varying shapes and sizes are wedged between the lightweight material and its tumbled leather overlays. More durable paneling appears at the usual spots – forefoot, along the tongue, around the heel – but boasts jagged, angled edges. The disparate hits of “Oil Green,” “Phantom” and “Light Bone” also nod to the sneakers’ scrap-like arrangement.
An official Nike SNKRS release date hasn’t been confirmed by the brand, but that’s likely to change as 2022 inches closer. In any case, enjoy images of the pair ahead.
