Released
Nike SB Dunk High Pro Beyond - White/Ivory-Sand Dune-Blue Void-Dark Team Red (SKU: IU4491-100) sneaker release

Nike SB Dunk High Pro Beyond

White/Ivory-Sand Dune-Blue Void-Dark Team Red

SKU: IU4491-100

The Beyond x Nike SB Dunk High 'White Ivory Sand Dune' celebrates the 20th anniversary of the Finnish skate shop. The collaborative release is inspired by Finnish architect and designer Alvar Aalto, whose kidney-shaped curved-bottom pools helped to give rise to California's empty-pool skateboarding scene in the '70s. Channeling Scandinavian functionalism, the high-top sports a suede upper in ivory and light tan. The birch-toned Swoosh nods to Aalto's iconic furniture, while the blue patent leather collar mimics the look of glazed ceramic tiles. The rust-brown rubber outsole symbolizes the red brick commonly found in Aalto's building designs.

The Kobe Bryant x Nike Dunk Low Protro 'Draft Day' showcases the colors of the franchise that selected and subsequently traded Kobe in the 1996 NBA Draft. The leather upper combines a crisp white base with snakeskin-textured overlays in metallic purple. A bright teal finish on the Swoosh and Kobe-branded heel tab is designed to wear away, revealing a golden yellow hue in a nod to the Los Angeles Lakers. Kobe's signature Sheath logo appears on the woven tongue tag and sockliner. This Protro edition of the retro silhouette features a drop-in ReactX midsole for lightweight cushioning.
