Nike SB Dunk Low University Red

“University Red/White” --- Essentially a flipped take on the OG Dunk Low “University Red” — a color scheme with roots that reach all the way back to 1985’s famed “Be True To Your School” Dunk pack — the “University Red/White” serves up inverted style for a fresh-yet-familiar look.

Many a Dunk Low uses the same colorblocking scheme: signature shade on the mudguard, eyestays, Swooshes, heels and heel tabs, secondary tone (usually white) on the toeboxes, quarters and collars. Here, that’s switched around as the primary “Varsity Red” shade takes up residence on toeboxes, quarters and collars while “White” fills in the rest of the gaps. Apart from the Swooshes, further branding appears on the heel tab and the nylon tongue’s fabric tag. Insoles add a hit of “Total Orange” and white midsoles work with red outsoles to round off the look.
