[Update 26 Jun 2023] With a release date of 26 June, the Nike Dunk Low Athletic Department “UNC Blue” is now available for purchase via Nike SNKRS and select retailers. Head over to grab yours now before they sell-out!
Nike Sportswear releases many new collections each season, along with unique iterations of its best-selling models. One currently in the pipeline, the “Athletic Department” pack, centers around a vintage aesthetic paying homage to olden college athletics. Thus far subsumed is an Air Max 1, P-6000, with this new makeup joining another Dunk Low.
Similar color-blocking to its bright red predecessor, this reiteration gives its nubuck overlays a familiar greyscale appearance while adding a worn look to the midsole and “Coconut Milk”-dipped laces. The silhouette lightens the overall look with a clean white base and adopts North Carolina’s “University Blue” hue to highlight its collar, tongue trim, heel tab, mid-foot Swoosh, and tread underneath, while complementing the golden Nike embroidery and achromatic “Athletic Department” branding.
Information is scant at the moment but with these official images emerging, there’s reason to believe more about the pair will come to light. Stay tuned!
Till then, consider a look at the Nike Air Jordan 1 Low Craft “Cement Grey”.
