Nike presents the Dunk Low Retro 'UCLA'
In recent years, the Dunk has become one of Nike's most popular silhouettes. The model is regularly covered in the colours of an American university, such as the previously dropped Dunk Low 'Syracuse' and Dunk High 'Kentucky Blue'. Now Nike is also dropping the Dunk Low 'UCLA', which is colour-inspired by the University of California - Los Angeles.
The Nike Dunk Low 'UCLA' combines the school colours blue and yellow. The blue is inspired by the clear California sky and sea. The yellow comes from the bright sun and the famous California Poppy flower.
The upper has a leather base that is coloured 'University Gold'. This is further covered in 'Blue Jay' leather overlays. The tongue is also golden and features blue detailing. Beneath the upper is a white midsole, which creates an airy break from the gold-blue colour combination. Finally, the pair is rounded off with a matching blue outsole.
The Nike Dunk Low 'UCLA' will be released on August 9, 2022 at various retailers and via raffles. Click on the button to check where the sneaker is available.

The Nike Dunk Low appears in a 'UCLA' colorway
The first images of the Nike Dunk Low 'UCLA' have been released. When the Dunk first came out in 1985, the model represented several universities. UCLA was not featured then, as the university had collaborations with adidas and PUMA.
The upper of this Dunk Low is made of leather. The colour scheme consists of two different colours. The base of the pair is in yellow. This colour is reflected on the toebox, side panel, collar and tongue.
The other colour that recurs on the silhouette is blue. This blue colour can be seen on the overlays, heeltab, lining and Swoosh. The branding on the heeltab is in yellow and the branding on the tongue is in blue. To complete the upper, the laces are also in yellow.
The midsole of the 'UCLA' colorway is in white and breaks up the colour scheme. The outsole of the pair is in the style of the colour scheme though and is the same blue colour as the overlays and the Swoosh. The insole is also given this blue colour and the Nike logo is printed in yellow.
The Nike Dunk Low 'UCLA' has no official release date yet. As soon as more information becomes available, we will keep you posted. Until then, we can take a look at the images.
