The Nike Dunk Low ‘Reverse Curry’ design

Draped in a luxurious all-leather ensemble, the foundation boasts an exquisite ‘Dark Curry’ hue. The iconic Swoosh gracefully traverses the sides, paying homage to its original counterpart from a bygone era. Delve deeper, and you’ll discover the distinctive Nike insignia meticulously stitched onto the tongue tag and heel badge.

Beneath the surface, the midsole introduces a touch of innovation, incorporating rubber infusion for enhanced bounce and comfort—qualities inherent to the Dunk as a versatile basketball shoe. The ensemble concludes with an earthy golden brown outsole, adding a final touch of sophistication.
