Dropping Soon: The Nike SB Dunk Low Safari 'Olympics'

The ‘Olympic’ theme is nothing new when it comes to the sneaker market, having seen a variety of pairs release throughout the years, most notably on silhouettes like the Nike Air Max 1 and Nike Air Jordan 6. The ‘Olympic’ colourways typically sport USA-themed tones, but this upcoming Nike SB Dunk Low strays very far from that and appears nothing like you would expect the name would suggest. When you think of skateboarding, the Olympics is probably not the first thing that comes to mind. However, having been added to the list of games in 2020, skating has taken the Olympic world by storm and even seen some clean collaborations. The most notable was the Nike SB Dunk Low ‘Yuto Horigome’, Yuto being the first skater to strike gold at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. As well as being a winning skater, his design of the Nike SB Dunk Low was also deserving of a medal as it was without a doubt one of the cleanest releases of 2023.

Moving on to the upcoming release, the Nike SB Dunk Low Safari ‘Olympics’ are set to release in conjunction with the 2024 Paris Olympic games, included amongst a capsule of both shoes and clothing. From immediate impressions, it’s difficult to envision the Olympic theme within the pair, but they are still a slick pair none the less. The Nike SB Dunk Low Safari 'Olympics' sports a predominantly grey upper, overlaid with iconic safari print that we have all grown to love and seen on many other pairs such as the Nike SB Dunk Low ‘atmos Elephant’ and Jordan 3 Retro White Cement Reimagined. Subtle pops of colour complement the otherwise monotone upper, with orange appearing on the inner lining and tongue branding, whilst vibrant blue laces provide an eye-catching finish.

Set to drop in the summer to coincide with the 2024 Paris Olympics, the Nike SB Dunk Low Safari ‘Olympics’ are a fresh iteration that will complement the summer wardrobe perfectly. We cannot wait to get our hands on a pair, and whilst you wait, you can shop the latest Nike SB releases we have on our website. What are you waiting for?
