The nikelab Dunk Lux Chukka X RT

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

Before last year, Riccardo #tisci had been known as an “Air Force 1 guy,” first collaborating with #nikelab on a collection of footwear that reimagined the classic shoe through its roots in basketball culture. 2016 brought the release of Tisci’s first Dunk collaboration, the #nikelab #dunkluxhighxrt, two training shoes, the Free Train Force Flyknit x RT and the Transform Flyknit x RT and a Chelsea boot, the Air Zoom Legend x RT.
Offering another take on the #dunkluxhighxrt, #tisci and #nikelab have created a mid, the new #nikelab Dunk Lux Chukka x RT. The shoe, which comes in both black/white and red/white colorways, is specifically inspired by Tisci’s interest in the aesthetics of skate culture and retro ‘80s basketball.
“I think the Dunk has something that's very special. It's grounded in #sport as well as in the street style culture," says #tisci. "For younger generations it can fit as many different styles tribes as you can imagine. I think it's one of the most iconic shoes that #nike has ever created.”
Exaggerated proportions carry over from the Dunk Lux High, including the big belly Swoosh and englarged foxing and eyestay. The shoe also retains a full-grain leather upper for durability, drop-in Lunarlon insole for ultra-soft cushioning and memory foam in the quilted leather collar and tongue for a secure and comfortable fit.
Added features include removal of the toe perforations, rolled edges on the upper and the RT logo and #nike swoosh debossed on the heel.
The #nikelab Dunk Lux Chukka x RT will be available beginning February 10 at #nikelab at Bergdorf Goodman, #nikelab 21M, Dover Street Market New York, Kith BK and Concepts NYC. It will be available globally starting February 23 at #nikelab retailers and on #nike.com/nikelab.
