Nike Dunk Low Athletic Department "Grey Red" FJ5429-133

Nope, this Nike Dunk Low did not come straight from 1985, but it looks like it! Vintage-inspired aesthetics headline the new Athletic Department collection from Nike. We have a bunch of other Nike shoes aside from this Nike Dunk so stay tuned for those. The Nike Dunk Low Athletic Department “Grey Red” lands in neutral-based colours with red accents. Yellowish tones give the shoe that aged look.

Nike never runs out of themes to give the Nike Dunk, it’s still popular for four years strong and counting. The new Athletic Department collection honours the brand’s sports heritage with the classic Nike colours along with the aged aesthetics.

Some may be tired of the influx of Nike Dunk Lows in the market. Not to mention the endless restocks of the then highly coveted Panda colourway. Despite this, Nike continues to pursue more styles of the Nike Dunk.

The Nike Dunk first released in 1985 as a basketball shoe for the collegiate ranks. With Nike’s Be True to Your School campaign, the Nike Dunk saw action on the feet of Nike-sponsored schools.

After moving out of the basketball category, Dunks became popular skate shoes. Then the crep transitioned to lifestyle and turned out to be a famous casual sneaker.

This Nike Dunk Low Athletic Department “Grey Red” features a sail white suede base with grey suede overlays. Red accents cover the leather Swoosh, heel, and inner lining. Yellowish tones make up the laces and rubber midsole for a vintage finish.

You can cop this sneaker along with the rest of the Athletic Department collection this May 2023.
