Release Confirmed: Nike Dunk Low “ATL”
Possibly the first of many city tributes of American cities (that's not LA or New York), starting with The Big A.
[Update 22 Mar 2023] For everyone eyeing the pair, good news! A release date has been scheduled for 4 April. In a few weeks, you can finally get your hands on this Atlanta tribute Dunks on Nike for US$120.
[Update 18 Jan 2023] Official images of the upcoming Dunk Low have been released! Check out the details on the Nike Dunk Low “Atlanta” via the top slider above. While a release date has not been confirmed yet, word on the street is that we can expect to see this pair drop sometime in March this year. Stay tuned for more updates!
[Update 28 Nov] Enjoy the on-feet images of the titular pair from none other than @yankeekicks. At the time of writing, a release date hasn’t been ascertained, bar for March next year. Considering this’s a city tribute, more should be in the pipeline at the Oregon home base, so that’s more reason to stay locked here on the SNKRDUNK Magazine.
[Update 17 Nov] A tentative release window has surfaced. For now, the pair’s expected to drop sometime in March 2023 with a price tag of US$120. Along with this news are some leaked images courtesy of @prvt.selection, offering more detailed and angular looks of the crimson pair.
Nike has done many city tributes before like the fragment design x Nike Dunk High “City Pack” and the HUF x Nike SB Dunk Low “City Pack”. While American cities like New York have always gotten the spotlight, Atlanta now gets its own share of it, its own time in the sun, away from the solar system of the Big Apple.
Adopting the same red hue of the Clark Atlanta University x Nike Dunk Low, the color indulgently takes over the upper and outsole. In the same spectrum comes the orange in the form of the translucent profile Swooshes. A full-suede base layer sits supported by the white rubber sole unit below, complemented by the smooth leather overlays in the same shade.
The usual branding elements on the tongue tag and heel embroidery might be obscured while bathed in the same color palette, this however allows for more attention towards the “ATL” debossed on the lateral heel. Designed with a gold foil finish, the words also feature a tiny Swoosh in place of the bridge in the letter “A”.
These images were shared by @iamricosuav and what’s discernible from them, is all the information that’s available. Nike hasn’t disclosed a release date nor a price point. But with so many Dunk Low iterations being released, the wait shouldn’t be an agony.
Case in point: the Nike Dunk Low LX “Pink Foam”.
