Michael Le From the split toe of the ISPA Drifter to the Setsubun-related elements of past releases, Nike is constantly employing Japanese influences across their designs. This newly-revealed Dunk Low is certainly no exception, as its “Industrial Blue” upper is mended in the style of Sashiko, a traditional form of embroidery.
This wouldn’t be the first time Nike has leaned on this specific craft: previously, they’ve implemented Sashiko across the Air Force 1 “Nai-Ke,” albeit in a much busier fashion. Here, the late Peter Moore’s beloved creation indulges in moderation, applying the technique only to the toe box and heel tab. Elsewhere, the denim upper — whose overlays and unders are dressed in “Industrial Blue” and “Summit White,” respectively — are devoid of any additional detailing save for the exterior panelings’ contrast stitching.
Enjoy a closer look at the Nike Dunk Low “Industrial Blue” via the official images below. These should hit select retailers and Nike.com relatively soon, so sit tight.
