Nike SB 'Albino & Preto' Dunk Low Pro QS Skate Shoes - Fossil/Black-Sail
Description
Joined on the mat by Jiu-Jitsu masters Albino & Preto, Nike SB illustrate their sparring prowess; introducing the latest collaborative effort from The Swoosh, the Nike SB Albino & Preto Dunk Low in Fossil/Black-Sail.
Grappling with the transcendent concepts of martial arts culture, Albino & Preto bridges Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu customs with those of a lifestyle brand; with loving dedication to action crafts at their core, Albino & Preto draw parallels to skate brand culture. This is realised through a collection of culture-rich Jiu-Jitsu focussed products, counterbalanced by a universally accessible apparel line, and all crafted with care from the highest quality fabrics. Facilitating skateboarding and enriching the skate-adjacent, the commitment of Nike SB to their own cultural cosmos is reflective of the A&P campaign and The Dunk is the perfect canvas: a cross-culture shoe built for basketball, repurposed for skateboarding, and with streetwear fanatics in a chokehold.
Submission holds aside, BJJ’s next most commonly identifiable element is perhaps its distinctive uniform. Recognising the tenacious qualities of the traditional gi, the off-white upper of the Nike SB x Albino & Preto Dunk is engineered from tactile heavy gauge pearl wave canvas, mastering a tough exterior but retaining a softer, cottony aesthetic covering covert wear-away panels. Premium single white stitch detailing mounts the toe box, locking down the panelling and providing the shoe a look of uniformity, whilst a black suede Swoosh hooks the lateral and medial sides, embellished with abstract embroidered linework reminiscent of the intricate shoulder art on Albino & Preto Kimonos. Framed by the heel tab, further embroidery showcases the A&P logo, and the final fine touch of this iteration of the famous Dunk Low is a selection of 7 lace options, colour coded to represent the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu belt grading system.
