Nike is dipping a toe back into the skateboarding versus lifestyle pool with the Nike Dunk Low SE “Deep Royal Blue”. As it’s part of the Sportswear catalog, the pair can be placed under the lifestyle category; however, the color palette and material mix of this Dunk give it serious SB (skateboard) cred. The silhouette is something that you could easily skate in as well.
The upper is a mix of Deep Royal Blue suede overlays on top of a Wolf Grey leather canvas base, giving the shoe an almost “layered” or vintage feel. The white Swoosh and heel tab contrast nicely with the deep blues and blacks, while the large blue laces give the top part of the shoe an intense look. Underfoot, the white “Sail” midsole and gum rubber outsole offer a fresh nod to the retro skate silhouettes that were worn in decades past.
Although the Nike Dunk Low SE “Deep Royal Blue” is not an official SB Dunk, the vibe of this shoe is straight out of the SB Dunk world. This Special Edition (SE) tag promises better materials and higher construction quality. You won’t see Zoom Air or padded tongues on this Dunks (honestly, you don’t really need it), but the shoes definitely carry enough street style aesthetic.
The shape itself will call back to older skateshop collaborations or even the GR Dunks of the early 2000s to some, but the overall feel is new and fresh enough for 2025. The muted colorways and gum bottom make this a super easy shoe to drop in your daily rotation.
The Nike Dunk Low SE “Deep Royal Blue” will be released in Fall 2025 for men’s sizing, through a select retailer and Nike.com. The retail price is set at $115 USD.
