Nike SB x Fly Streetwear Dunk Low

A testament to early skate memories and floral fragrances. Designed in partnership with Shanghai based Fly Streetwear, the Nike SB x Fly Streetwear capsule includes a co-designed Nike SB Dunk Low Pro and a selection of apparel ultimately inspired by founder Jeff Han’s time spent skating the streets of China’s ‘Magic City’.

Founded in 1999 by Jeff Han, an influential Shanghainese skater also dubbed the ‘Godfather of Chinese skateboarding’, Fly Streetwear is a visionary storefront and brand recognised for their tether to Shanghai’s Changle Road and for their links to Gift Skateboards’ ‘It’s A Wrap’ from 2009; China’s first official full length skate video. Drawing constant creative influence from Shanghai street culture, Fly Streetwear’s latest Dunk Low Pro arrives as the brand’s seventh collaboration with Nike SB, following on from other notable releases such as the ‘Wake Up, Go Skate’ Nike SB x Fly Stefan Janoski from 2018, the ‘Barber’ Nike SB Dunk High and the Nike SB Dunk Mid designed in partnership with Brandon Cheng’s clothing brand Triumvir.

Nicknamed the ‘White Orchid’, the latest Fly x Nike SB Dunk draws significant inspiration from early day Chinese street culture and from the elderly grandmothers “lao nai nai” (老奶奶) selling sweet-scented and braided Gardenia flowers on street corners. Tapping into childhood memories, the release sets about honouring two aspects of Shanghainese street culture; flower vending and skateboarding.

Styled with basket-inspired blue suede uppers and soft grey leather uppers, the Nike SB x Fly Streetwear Dunk Low Pro also features classic toe box perforations, a full length cupsole construction and a grippy circular underfoot tread. Zoom Air inserts and a padded collar provide additional support and cushioning, whilst each padded tongue is secured via rope style laces. Referencing the sweet-scent associated with the white orchids once commonly bound and sold by Shanghainese street pedlars, this Fly Streetwear Dunk is detailed with embroidered, petal-like side wall Swooshes, lateral quarter Gardenia trinkets and with green suede ‘Nike’ heel panels inspired the white orchid’s sepal. Finished with iron Swoosh accents inspired by the wire wound around the flowers, mismatched ‘Nike SB x Fly Dunk Low Pro’ tongue labels and with custom printed Chinese calligraphy insoles.

Bridging tradition and skate culture with the fragrance of Shanghai, the Nike SB x Fly Dunk Low Pro is also joined by co-designed Nike SB x Fly Streetwear ½ Zip Fleece styled with a brushed fleece lining.
