Nike Dunk Low
"Teddy Bear"
DZ5318-640
This charming Nike Dunk Low uses soft materials and unique graphics to provide a distinctive look, earning it the nickname Teddy Bear. Beginning underfoot, the sole unit has a classic feel to it thanks to the white midsole, which is filled with comfort-giving foam, and the gum-colored outsole, which offers the wearer plenty of grip through the circular lines and blocky lugs across its surface.
Meanwhile, the upper brings together three shades of pink, for an elegant look. The lightest of the three is Light Soft Pink, with Medium Soft Pink acting as the darkest tone and Pink Foam sitting somewhere between the two. One of the lighter hues appears through the base layer of the upper, which is made from a breathable woven fabric that gently hugs the foot. While this is visible on the toe box, the midfoot and a portion of the heel, the suede overlays show up in a deeper pink as they form the rear overlay, the eyestay and the forefoot mudguard.
A semi-circle of off-white leather sits atop the heel, and capitalized Nike lettering has been debossed into its surface in a muted pink. Stretching out from beneath its bottom edge is a pair of creamy white swooshes, each reaching gracefully down one of the shoe’s flanks. Attached to the tail end of the lateral one is a pink suede patch with blue and orange Nike branding pressed into it, and just below the medial one, a delicate teddy bear face has been etched into the heel overlay.
More pinks work together over the top of the foot, whose pillowy tongue has a patch with cream-colored Nike branding woven through it. The sneaker’s inner lining is blanketed in a fuzzy velveteen material which cuddles the ankles with a silky embrace. Finally, a memorable teddy bear graphic can be found on the pink insoles, thus completing this cozy Dunk design.
