Get ready to ditch the boring Dunks because a new contender’s rolling into town, and it’s dripping with flavour. Nike whips up a sweet “Strawberry Waffle” Dunk Low and this Dunk’s got a secret weapon on its side, a hidden message that true sneaker history buffs will instantly recognize. Buckle up, because it’s a trip down memory lane with a waffle iron twist!
This latest addition to Nike’s breakfast-inspired lineup follows the tonal Nike Dunk Low “Waffle” and Nike Blazer Mid ’77 “Waffle.” With its vibrant splash of red, the “Strawberry Waffle” references fresh strawberries and strawberry jam, making it a standout. The vivid red hue appears on the soles, sock lining, laces, and the Swoosh logo, while lighter tan shades on the suede toe box, collar, and leather overlays offer a subtle contrast.
Nike’s serving up a tasty treat with this new silo, making sure breakfast is never skipped! The upper of the pair features a blend of textures that mimic a freshly toasted waffle, while the strawberry red laces, liners, Swooshes, and outsole add a sweet touch. Meanwhile, premium leather overlays provide a luxurious feel, and the waffle-inspired pattern on the midsection adds a whimsical twist.
Breaking from the first “Waffle” colourway, this version sports a white midsole instead of the “Wheat” one of its sibling. Red insoles with a waffle-inspired tag reading “One Bowerman Dr. Beaverton, Oregon” pay homage to Nike co-founder Bill Bowerman’s original waffle sole innovation from 1972. Though the Dunk Low doesn’t feature the original waffle sole, it celebrates a pivotal moment in sneaker history with a clever design theme.
As for the sizing rule for the Lows, these kicks are roomy – way more chill than your usual Highs. So listen up, gotta go half a size down to lock in that perfect fit!
