Nike Dunk Low Bacon

The Nike Dunk Low Bacon takes its palette from the original Dunk High Bacon: cream, brown and rust layered across a leather upper. Buy it if you want a warm, earth-toned Dunk that does not look like every white and black pair on the street.

The upper is leather with suede or nubuck overlays depending on panel, giving the shoe more texture than a standard leather Dunk. Underneath is the usual Dunk setup, a foam midsole and rubber cupsole with the pivot circle at the forefoot, no Air unit. That flat construction is what makes Dunks break in quickly and sit close to the ground.

This is for anyone whose wardrobe runs brown, tan, olive or washed denim. Bacon slots into autumn fits far better than a bright colourway and reads as more considered than a panda.

Textured earth tones move slower than hyped colourways at retail but tend to age better, which makes this a good pickup if you actually plan to wear them rather than store them.

Sizes 5.5, 6 and 6.5 currently in stock, with two pairs in 6. Deadstock, verified in hand, shipped from Dallas.
