Up Close: Nike Dunk Low ‘Syracuse’
Can’t stop, won’t stop. Nike are running rampant with the low-cut Dunk retros. We’ve already had the ‘Viotech’ and ‘Plum’ suede editions from the early 2000s return, and now a familiar two-toned orange and white version is dropping soon.
Known colloquially as the ‘Syracuse’, it’s named after the collegiate team that was part of the original Be True To Your School (BTTYS) pack back in the 80s. Here, it’s now in low form for purely casual use.
Leather uppers, mesh tongues and lining. Rubber sole. Simple and clean – yet it’s likely these will sell out within seconds.
Check out the above shots by Australian retailer Up There, who release the Dunks on February 15 in store. Stay tuned for details of a Stateside drop.
