The Story of Nike Dunks
Inspired by popular sneakers that came before, Nike Dunks aimed to shake up the basketball trainer scene in 1985. The designer of the shoes, Peter Moore, differentiated his creation from others on the market by emphasising colours aside from the standard white. When they launched as part of the ‘Be True to Your School’ campaign, the uppers of the first Nike Dunk high tops had distinct colourways based on 12 schools in the US, all of which would be later reintroduced as retro models.
Unfortunately, the overwhelming popularity of the Air Jordan 1 meant that Dunks struggled to compete in the basketball arena, and it was skateboarders who latched onto the trainers, appreciating the use of thick leather padding and a grippy texture. Today, the sneakers are worn by people of all varieties, be they athletes or fashion icons, and there are not just highs, but also low and mid tops spanning dozens of unique colourways, from the Panda (black and white) to Grey Fog and Valerian Blue.
