The “Parra x Nike SB Dunk Low” is a vibrant and artistically driven sneaker that showcases the unique vision of Dutch artist Piet Parra. Released in July 2019, this collaboration continues the legacy of Nike’s partnership with Parra, blending his signature use of bright colors and whimsical patterns with the iconic SB Dunk Low silhouette. The sneaker features a white leather base with a multicolored, patterned Swoosh that pays homage to Parra’s abstract and post-pop visual language. These patterns are also present in the shoe’s lining, creating a distinctive contrast with the otherwise clean and minimalistic exterior.
The sneaker’s design is rounded out with a quadruple-colored layer of suede on the upper, embodying shades of pink, red, blue, and white, adding depth and texture to the overall design. Parra’s artwork extends to the custom insoles and the tongue tab branding, which include both his signature and the Nike SB logo, showcasing the collaborative nature of the shoe. The sneaker is finished with a simple yet elegant gum outsole, which complements the playful upper while providing the traction and durability expected from a skateboarding shoe. The Parra x Nike SB Dunk Low is not only a functional skateboarding shoe but also a collector’s piece that merges the worlds of art, fashion, and sport.
