What do you need to know about Nike Dunk trainers ?

The story of the Nike Dunk begins at the start of the rise of basketball in the United States in 1985. At that time, the Nike brand was still only 10 years old and was not as well known as Today. To take advantage of the popularity of basketball, the American firm designed the famous Air Jordan and the Dunk , like basketball shoes . But they would later become trainers , and would be found in both the world of sport and fashion.

When it was released, the Nike Dunk was not really a reference model in basketball, even if it was designed to be used on the courts. To boost the collection, Nike undertook an advertising campaign in 1985 called “ Be True To Your School ” by honoring 12 university basketball teams. In particular, she offered them a pack including a Dunk and complete outfits in the colors of the said schools (St John's, Syracuse, Kentucky, Michigan and others). The collection only had an impact on popular culture later, with the advent of retro.

Now, the Nike Dunk has been organically adopted beyond basketball, especially within the skateboarding community . This is largely due to its technical specificities. To ride this wave and win more skaters' hearts, Nike has reinforced the versatility and comfort of its shoes. Between 1998 and 2000, it notably introduced a padded nylon tongue. Then, to adapt to the needs of skateboarding enthusiasts, in 2002 the brand formalized products specially dedicated to this sport such as Dunk with padding and traction . The big leap in the Nike Dunk collection took place in 2005 with the Nike Dunk Low SB produced in only 150 copies and limited to New York City. But on the day of its release, faced with the unexpected crowd, riots were provoked, and the police had to intervene. The Nike Dunk SB Low was designed by designer Jeff Staple , and is mainly distinguished by its gray and pink color as well as the Pigeon logo. Since then, she has remained an icon in the world of trainers .
