Nike Dunk High SE
"Vintage Panda"
DZ4732-133
This pair of Nike Dunk High SE sneakers has been given faded tones and retro effects, thus earning it the nickname Vintage Panda. This can be seen most clearly on the sole unit, whose midsole comes in a Sesame tone that gives it an aged look. Below it, the black outsole features reliable grip patterns, with circular formations emanating out across the forefoot and linear blocks under the heel. These facilitate both a solid step and fluid twists and turns, while the foam padding in the midsole supports the wearer through every activity.
The upper has been decorated in the familiar black and white hues of the Panda colourway, though once again with a slightly worn tinge throughout. A gentle off-white known as Sail covers the underlayer of leather, which shows up around the top part of the heel before reappearing through the midfoot panels and once more on the toe box, whose fan of ventilation holes helps to keep the foot cool. Resting atop this platform are several black leather overlays, the first of which encircles the toe to provide protection from mud and dirt. Its top part is overlapped by the eyestay, which extends up to the peak of the high-top collar. The rear overlay connects to it just below the height of the collar so that the two share a pair of eyelets. In its lateral side, capitalised Nike lettering has been printed in white, creating a strong tonal contrast.
Meanwhile, over the top of the foot, off-white laces lie across the white canvas tongue. Its top edge displays exposed foam, and the white tongue patch looping over it carries black Nike branding in a retro design. More creamy off-white hues spread down inside the sneaker, coating everything except for the Nike lettering and the swoosh beside it, both of which are black. Finally, back on the outer, the sidewall swooshes sweep energetically away from a black pull tab at the heel and along the flanks to finish the heritage construction of this Dunk High.
