The year of the Dunk continues with my latest pickup, the Slam Jam collab with Nike on the Dunk High SP “Pure Platinum”! This Slam Jam-exclusive released in the beginning of October, and includes elevated materials and a very clean and simplistic colour palette. Watch my detailed review to learn more and let me know how you feel about these down below!
The latest Nike and Off-White collab landed on October 1st, with the Air Rubber Dunk in a trio of colours. Released as regional exclusives, this “Green Strike” pair released in North America, and I managed to scoop up a pair for my latest review! Taking the classic Dunk for a spin, Virgil Abloh drastically changes its look with changes like a visible Air unit on the heel, and rubber overlays paying homage to skateboarding. Check out my review and let me know what you think of these down below!
Inspired by the renowned Air Max 1 “Lemonade” from the 2006 Powerwall collection, the “Limeade” Air Max 1 dropped last week in a similar design, but reversing the green and yellow hits on the shoe. Though they still sold out on the drop day, this is much more of a niche release, for those who really appreciate the Air Max 1 and its history. Check out my review for a closer look and to learn more about this pair!
The Nike Dunk High returned true to its original form, with this colourway inspired by the Michigan State Spartans! The “Spartan Green” Dunks incorporate a full-grain leather upper in the classic colour blocking style. Check out my review for a closer look and let me know if you’re feeling these down in the comments below!
The year of the Dunk continues, as Nike released the Dunk Low in the “Community Garden” colourway. This wild colourway is dressed in a canvas upper, with each pair featuring a different arrangement of patterns, creating a one-of-one look between shoe to shoe. Check out my review to get a closer look. Is this one of your favourite drops of the year or no?
Coming out of Nike’s N.354 lab, the Nike Offline released at the end of August as a slipper / slide / mule meant to be worn “offline” and to promote the mental health benefit of taking time to unplug and disconnect. Featuring two different drop-in insoles, these customize the feeling on feet! Check out my review to learn more about these, and let me know if you’re feeling these (and the price point) down below!
The Civilist x Nike SB Dunk Low Pro dropped to end off August, and it’s one of the wildest executed Dunks I’ve seen in a while! Featuring a black leather upper that reveals a heat map graphic underneath when exposed to direct heat, these are inspired by Germany in the late 80s / early 90s following the fall of the Berlin Wall and the rise in their Techno scene. Check out my review for a closer look!
My newest review covers the Air Jordan 3 Retro SE “Denim”. This clean pair of Jordan 3s replaces the traditional elephant print with Denim, and adds more uniqueness by including a translucent heel tab that showcases both Nike Air and Jumpman branding. Watch my video to get a good look at these up close, and let me know if you guys are feeling the look of this pair! Was this a cop or a drop?
My latest review covers the “Samba” Dunk Low from Nike. Originally releasing in 2001 as a Japan-exclusive, these return in 2020 with a wider release! Featuring blue, red and grey leather overlays, they continue Nike’s strong Dunk releases throughout 2020. Check out my video and share your comments down below!
