While Dunks continue to be crowd pleasers in metro areas worldwide, those who fell in love with the silhouette during its early 2000s heyday will always hold a special place for both the fat tongue SB Dunk and colorways inspired by that era. The Dunk Low “Monsoon Blue” may not carry the skate-minded tooling, but there’s no denying SB leanings were a guiding light in its creation.

As it often is, a gum sole is the clearest indication of Nike SB influence here. However, the dominant “Monsoon Blue” suede on the upper ventures towards the same territory, establishing a tonal atmosphere we’ve seen plenty with Orange Label releases like the SB Dunk Low “University Navy” or SB Dunk Low “University Red.” The elevated material touches do a lot to bring this pair above an ever-crowded field of Dunk drops without sacrificing the everyday appeal of Peter Moore’s composition.

The Nike Dunk Low “Armory Navy” is projected to drop this Fall, landing on Nike.com & retail shelves for $125.
