Spring’s Arriving Early with the Nike Dunk Low ‘Soft Pearl’

Spring might still feel miles away, but it’s definitely on the horizon; and with it comes the perfect sneaker to elevate your warm weather wardrobe: the Nike Dunk Low ‘Soft Pearl.’ While the ‘80s basketball silhouette may not command the same hype it did a few years back, it remains a timeless classic, and this latest iteration proves why.

The ‘Soft Pearl’ brings a clean, charming aesthetic to the Dunk lineup. Its crisp white leather base is beautifully accented by buttery ‘Apricot Agate’ suede overlays that wrap around the toebox, eyelets, and heel. Nike’s iconic Swoosh, also in ‘Apricot Agate,’ graces both the lateral and medial side panels, while additional branding is embroidered on the tongue tag and heel badge, offering all the quintessential Dunk design elements we know and love.

But this sneaker isn’t just about good looks. What makes it stand out is its focus on sustainability. As part of Nike’s ‘Next Nature’ series, at least 20% of the materials used in its construction are recycled. The midsole even incorporates Nike Grind; recycled rubber scraps from the manufacturing process. Stylish and environmentally conscious? That’s a win win!

The ‘Soft Pearl’ also aligns with a growing trend of “blushing” sneakers dominating the market. adidas recently released the Gazelle Indoor ‘Pink Satin,’ while Puma introduced the Speedcat OG ‘Whisp of Pink.’ These rosy hued kicks are quickly becoming the must have trainers of the season. If you haven’t added a pair to your collection yet, chances are you’ll be slipping into some pastel tones soon.

The Nike Dunk Low ‘Soft Pearl’ will be released in the coming weeks via Nike, the Snkrs app, and select retailers worldwide, priced at approximately £110.
