The Nike RIOT Skateshop x Dunk Low SB “Mahogany Dark Beetroot” unites skateboarding with Bordeaux’s rich winemaking tradition in a collaboration that highlights nearly two decades of RIOT Skateshop’s impact on the local community. Drawing inspiration from the city’s dedication to authenticity, this design reflects Bordeaux’s cultural and historical significance.
The upper combines Mahogany leather with Dark Beetroot and black nubuck underlays, creating a deep and textured design reminiscent of Bordeaux’s famous wines. A translucent red sole pays homage to the grapes that define the region’s winemaking heritage, while the gradient cork insole further strengthens the connection to the craft. Details such as wax-seal tongue logos, debossed heel branding, and an embroidered heel logo—honouring the shop’s late sentinel—add meaningful touches to the design.
Built with practicality in mind, this Dunk Low maintains Nike SB’s focus on durability and comfort, ensuring it performs well for skateboarding while reflecting the cultural narrative behind its creation. This thoughtful collaboration bridges the worlds of skateboarding and local tradition, creating a shoe that celebrates both.
The Nike RIOT Skateshop x Dunk Low SB “Mahogany Dark Beetroot” pays tribute to Bordeaux’s heritage, combining craftsmanship and purpose in a design that honours the city’s unique identity.
