Nike Sportswear introduces the Skinny Dunk
Posted by Matt Halfhill | Jan 27, 2009 Staying true to the original design ethos of Nike, Nike Sportswear remixed an icon with a distinct focus on innovation. Specially made for the female consumer, the “Skinny” Dunk is Nike Sportswear’s offer for the female who loves authenticity that fits with her wardrobe.
Keeping the same silhouette of the “real” deal born in 1985 on the basketball court, Nike Design Director Jesse Leyva worked with a strong team of female designers to adjust the fit of the shoe to the female body. While the shoe still has the same outward appearance as the classic Nike Dunk, the inside has an improved feel with a less bulky feel thanks in large part to a new special last in the construction process. The Skinny Dunk is the right fit for ladies who want to rock the pop culture icon that compliments her foot and form without sacrificing any elements or aesthetic of the original Dunk silhouette. Simply put, the Skinny Dunk is an innovative mix of fit and feel designed specifically for her. The Nike Skinny Dunk is available at Nike Sportswear at 21 Mercer in NYC, the Montalban in LA, and online at NikeSportswear.com. |

not into all the skinny tight-i-can-see-how-much-change-is-in-your-pocket clothing fad…but nike managed to get the shoe to look the same as the old joints, and, ITS FOR THE LADIES, so more power to them.
kinda wish nike would bang out a decent set of colours for the guys tho…like an all whiteeee

Man i hope they really dont make skinny
dunks for use men becase of they do ..its could
be as a threat to shoe collectors..people mmite throw away
their fat dunks for the newer ones ..
lyk a new age or sum sheet then that means 3 years of shoe collecting would be over annd we would start all over again

WOW. How come they don’t release colors like these in men’s sizes? Everything on this shoe is dope, from the icy sole to the red tab on the tongue. I don’t think I can even fit into a lady’s 13. Silly skinny tech… Props nonetheless.
