Nike SB Dunk Low Court Purple/White-Black BQ6817-500

Description

While not an exact mimic, this composition does remind us of the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG “Court Purple” that released in the Fall of 2018, although that version featured a purple flooded toe-box compared to the more OG-style white seen.

the Nike SB Dunk Low have emerged in “Court Purple”, a brand new colorway that pairs up the regal hue on the sole and ankle wrap with a simple white/black upper.

Premium leather layers appear neatly arranged on the upper, with each layer colour blocking the other. A perforated white layer drapes the entire base. Jet black overlaying panels surround the lace region, heels, toes and the Swoosh logo on the sidewalls. Finally, a bright purple overlaying flap around the ankles adds more contrast to these classic style trainers.

Underfoot, we have the bright white midsoles featuring signature air cushioning technology. The tongue, insole and heel branding top off these sneaks with a signature branded finish. Black laces then tie up the entire silhouette, allowing them to fit perfectly onto the user’s feet!

Lastly, the whole sneaker rides atop the purple rubber outsole that keeps your feet steady and secure atop the ground.

Dunk vs SB Dunk: What’s the Difference Between the Sneakers?

The most noticeable difference between the two sneakers are their tongues. On the Nike Dunk, you get a slim, mesh tongue. On the SB Dunk, the tongue has been beefed up to provide more cushion and protection. By being thicker, the tongue helps with the fit as well. It enables the sneaker to mold to your feet, preventing any slipping or wiggling. The tongue is held down with elastic straps which provide an added layer of lockdown. As a bonus, it allows you to slip the SB Dunk on and off without having to mess with finicky laces.
