NIKE, NIKE DUNK LOW PRO SB, SIZE 8.5

Rubber, Cotton, Synthetic, Canvas

2003

In 2003, Nike launched the White Dunk Evolution of an Icon event, in which 25 Japanese artists were tasked to reimagine the white Nike Dunk as abstract works. The traveling exhibition gave way to the commemorative Nike Dunk ‘City Series’ which would feature highlights from major cities across the globe, starting with the Nike SB Dunk Low ‘Paris’, and followed by Nike SB Dunk Low Pro ‘Tokyo’, also included ‘London’ and ‘Pigeon’ SB Dunks respectively. Of the four major cities recognized in the city series, Tokyo offered a simple, yet unique take on the classic SB.


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 Boedecker, is credited with building one of Nike’s most beloved subdivisions in the early 2000s with the Nike SB line.


These ultra-minimalist SB Dunks are also incredibly rare, with only 202 pairs offered via lottery. 


The pair also comes with laces from the White Dunk Evolution of an Icon event.
