Nike SB Dunk Low Pro ’Purple Pigeon’ | US 10

For those that missed out in 2005 on the legendary NYC Pigeon Dunks which ushered in a new and significant chapter of sneaker culture, the Nike SB Dunk Low Pro Purple Pigeons offered a very close alternative in 2006. Featuring rich grey suede uppers reminiscent of the original Pigeons, these sneakers swapped out the famous orange outsole and white Swoosh with a Prism Violet hue. 

Whilst echoing the allure of the iconic NYC Pigeons, these sneakers have carved out their own identity with a unique colour variation and special nod to sneaker heritage.

The Nike SB Dunk made its formal debut in 2002 when Nike officially reappropriated the famed Dunk basketball sneaker originally designed in the 1980s with upgrades suited for the skateboarding community. The man behind it, former Nike executive Sandy Bodecker, is credited with building one of Nike’s most beloved subdivisions in the early 2000s with the Nike SB line.
