Dunk Low "Dusty Olive"

Olive suede and gold Swoosh

The Nike Dunk Low "Dusty Olive" is a low-top Dunk featuring an upper made of suede in a dusty olive shade. The suede changes tone depending on the angle of the light: at times it looks grey-green, at others distinctly warm. The gold Swoosh on the side and orange details set the entire palette, while a semi-transparent gum rubber outsole completes the look and provides traction on the pavement. Cushioning is built into the insole, and the lacing is classic, so you can easily adjust the upper to fit your midfoot. You can find other versions of this silhouette in the Nike Dunk Low shoes collection.

Where this colorway comes from

The color scheme references the Japanese "Ugly Duckling" series from 2001—Dunks that were considered unattractive at the time of their release, but over the years have become one of the most recognizable codes in this family of models. This version interprets that reference in its own way: less shouting, more focus on the material. If you like such themes, check out the entire family in Nike Dunk shoes.

Sizing and suede care

The Dunk Low fits quite predictably: for a standard foot, stick to your size; if you have a wide foot, it is worth going up half a size, as the suede is stiffer at first than leather. We have this pair in sizes from 40 to 46, with half sizes available. Measure the insole of a shoe you find comfortable and compare it with the size chart instead of guessing based on the number on the tag. After purchase, it is worth waterproofing the suede and cleaning it dry with a brush, rather than with a wet cloth.

How to wear it

Olive with orange accents fits the same outfits as military jackets and sand-colored trousers—it looks best with a subdued bottom and a simple trouser cut that slightly covers the lacing. We verify the authenticity of every item before listing: the box, product code, stitching, gluing, and sole. You have 14 days to return, with return shipping costs covered by the buyer.
