A new variation of the Nike Dunk has appeared, and the Swoosh will be using the children’s demographic as a testing ground for this brand new style.

At first glance, you can easily discern what’s new about this upcoming Dunk Low release. While the silhouette and overall build remains true to the classic, Nike has chosen to add a quilted padding on the underlay as it appears on the tongue, heel, and mid-foot. The stitching plays a role in the essence of the shoe as it carves out the Swoosh logo on the upper. What’s truly unique about this Dunk Low is the tongue; it’s now much longer than what we’re accustomed to as it reaches up the shin unlike nothing we’ve seen before. Spurning the classic nylon label, this Dunk Low simply embroiders the check onto the tip of the tongue,

Thick, flat laces and a translucent gum mid-sole further add to the eclectice nature of this Dunk Low, which may appear in a variety of other colorways somewhere down the line. For now, enjoy a first look at the official images ahead, and stay tuned for updates and availability on nike.com.
