The "Avocado" Nike Dunk Low Is Made Of Buttery Materials

With the new Nike Dunk Low "Avocado," Nike explores the realms of pricey fruit this season. It's one of the most unexpected colorways to drop this year, and here's what we know so far. Inspired by the same-named fruit, it's one of the most unexpected colorways to drop this year - and here's what we know so far.

This Dunk is painted in a dark green color scheme and fashioned from a leather that simulates the robust exocarp shell of an avocado, according to sneaker insider @brandon1an. For an even more organic look, lighter green accents outline all of the features, while mild yellow tones descend upon the heel and sockliner. The lateral toe bears a fruit sticker-inspired logo, while the interior of the tongue features a sequence of "Nutrition Facts," akin to the Social Status x Nike Dunk Mid.

Of course, no discussion of this shoe would be complete without addressing the trippy typeface utilized on the rear. We can't help but draw parallels between this and the Grateful Dead x Nike SB Dunk Low, because to the avocado's healthy nature.

This summer, the Nike Dunk Low "Avocado" is expected to ripen.

This Nike Waffle One Is Inspired By The Air Max 1 "Curry"

Image
The Waffle One is without a doubt one of Nike's most innovative new designs, bridging the gap between vintage and current style. The shoe's second appearance will feature a color scheme inspired by the popular Air Max 1 "Curry." The colorway bears a lot of parallels to the aforementioned, albeit it isn't quite uncanny in its likeness. To begin with, the color combination of "Cider" and "Twine" closely matches the food-inspired hue; they're even balanced out in a similar way, with white and its creamier offshoots adorning the Swoosh and sole adjacent. Furthermore, there is a hint of blue on the upper, though it is much more subdued here. This Curry-inspired Nike Waffle One gets an official look right here. Within the next few months, sizes should be available on Nike.com and at select stores. Nike Waffle One "Curry" Release Date: 2022 Color: Cider/Twine-Lemon Drop-Light Bone-Game Royal-Pollen Mens: $120 Style Code: DO2380-200
