₹0.00
With all the original college-themed BE TRUE colorways out of the way, Nike will resume its Dunk High productions in more two-tone styles that pair a clean white base with a brand new selection from the color wheel. With sporty shades like royal and navy already off the books, Nike looks toward this lighter shade akin to the “Dark Powder Blue” hue found in the original Air Jordan 1 colorway inspired by the UNC Tar Heels.
Origin: The Nike Dunk High, born in 1985, emerged from the 'Be True To Your School' campaign, a bold initiative to represent collegiate basketball teams with vibrant colorways. Its design was a direct response to the needs of the game, crafted to provide optimal performance on the hardwood courts. The 'Laser Blue' variant, echoing the original spirit, has roots in this legacy of athletic expression, specifically drawing inspiration from the University of North Carolina (UNC) colors.
Construction: The 'Laser Blue' iteration showcases a high-top silhouette, built with a premium white leather foundation and striking Laser Blue overlays. The materials include premium leather, a nylon tongue, and a durable rubber outsole, ensuring both style and resilience. Signature elements such as the iconic Nike Swoosh, perforations, and a padded collar, contribute to the shoe's recognizable aesthetic and functional design, adding to its overall appeal.
Utility: Primarily designed for basketball, the Nike Dunk High, including the 'Laser Blue' edition, seamlessly transitioned into the realm of lifestyle and streetwear. Its cushioned insole and standard foam midsole provide comfort for everyday wear, while the robust rubber outsole with a classic traction pattern offers reliable grip. The inclusion of additional 'Laser Blue' laces in the box offers a customizable experience for the wearer, enhancing the shoe's versatility.
Influence: The Nike Dunk High has long stood as a cornerstone of diverse subcultures, from basketball courts to skateboarding scenes, and into the heart of streetwear. The shoe's enduring influence is undeniable, having been embraced by tastemakers and trendsetters globally. The Dunk High’s appeal is further amplified by its adoption within hip-hop culture, where it has been a staple since the early days of the genre. Its appeal extends to sneakerheads, solidifying its place as a coveted collector's item.
