As the world is gearing up for the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, Nike SB is celebrating the grand event in its signature style. The upcoming release of the Nike SB Dunk Low Escargot is a testament to the brand's commitment to blending sport, culture, and style. Set to hit the shelves in Fall 2024, this sneaker draws inspiration from the city of lights and its iconic culinary heritage, promising to be a feast for the eyes of sneakerheads and Olympic fans alike.
The Nike SB Dunk Low Escargot is a unique concoction of colors and textures that captures the essence of Parisian elegance and the spirit of the Olympics. Hairy pear-colored suede serves as the underlays of the sneaker and is a nod to the green herb butter often referred to as snail butter. And what would an escargot-themed sneaker be without some snail shells - that's right, the sesame overlays symbolize the shell. Tying everything together is a metallic silver Nike Swoosh with a sheen similar to the two-pronged fork customarily used to eat Escargot.
Escargot is a playful homage to one of France's most renowned delicacies, symbolizing the blend of tradition and innovation that Paris will bring to the Olympic Games. It's a reminder of the joyous celebrations and the coming together of cultures that the Olympics stand for. Nike's choice to release the SB Dunk Low Escargot in conjunction with the 2024 Paris Olympics is a testament to the brand's dedication to capturing the essence of the host city in its designs.
Retailing for $125, the Nike SB Dunk Low Escargot is expected to release in early Fall 2024 to coincide with the Olympics that kickoff in July. The Nike SB Dunk Low Escargot will be available in skateshops and may hit Nike SNKRS. Stay up to date on this and other Nike SB Dunk Lows via the Sole Retriever app.
