The SB DUNK LOW, a product of the collaboration between Nike and Travis Scott, materialized as a highly anticipated release. It was specifically offered in a special box exclusive on February 22, 2020, followed by a general release on February 29, 2020. This partnership aimed to capitalize on the rising popularity of the SB Dunk silhouette.
Primarily designed for casual wear and skateboarding, the SB DUNK LOW caters to diverse consumer needs. However, due to its high value and collectibility, many owners opt to preserve the shoe. Its design and materials provide a blend of style, comfort, and potential performance for those who choose to skate in them.
The impact of this collaboration is undeniable, prominently visible in the cultural landscape. Travis Scott himself, in late 2019/early 2020, initially teased the shoe in his 'JACKBOYS' music video, increasing its hype. The design was also showcased in a Nike SB skate video featuring Robert Neal, Theotis Beasley, Ishod Wair, and Kyle Wilson in Houston, Texas, during February 2020. Moreover, Danny Supa's unboxing video on March 2, 2020, further amplified its presence. The shoe continues to be a symbol of high-end fashion and cultural significance.
This iteration features a complex patchwork design, skillfully incorporating suede, canvas, and plaid flannel overlays. The upper showcases a tear-away paisley canvas layer, revealing an elephant print beneath, adding a unique element. The design is further elevated by nubuck accents, thick rope laces, and mismatched Swooshes.
