Nike Dunk Low SP Syracuse (2020/2022)

Varsity colors in a low Dunk

The Nike Dunk Low SP "Syracuse" is a low-top basketball profile in a combination of white and orange, representing the colors of Syracuse University. The colorway didn't come from nowhere: the Dunk debuted in 1985 as part of the "Be True to Your School" program, in which Nike outfitted the same model in American university color palettes. The upper is made of premium leather, and the toe box is perforated, so the front of the shoe actually breathes rather than just looking ventilated. Orange sits on the Swoosh as well as the heel and tongue, while the rest remains white, making the pair stand out from a distance without overpowering your entire outfit. Underneath is a rubber sole with the classic Dunk tread, the same construction that has provided grip on concrete for forty years.

Fit and sizing

The Dunk Low has a narrow toe box and a low-cut upper: the foot sits close to the sole, and the ankle remains exposed. For a wider foot or a high instep, it is wiser to take a half size up, as the leather on the toe box only gives after a few days of wear. Sizing is standard for Nike, so if you have other models from the brand in your closet, the same size is a good starting point. Before you order, measure your foot in centimeters and compare the result with our size guide. The size range for this pair starts at 36 and ends at 44.5, although not every half size is currently in stock.

How to wear them

White and orange like a calm background. The simplest approach is to start with dark, simple jeans or gray sweatpants and a black hoodie, letting the shoes provide the color. If you want to accentuate the theme, just add one orange element higher up, such as a cap or socks, nothing more. The model works year-round, except in the rain, because white leather prefers dry sidewalks.
