The Nike Dunk Low Syracuse has cemented its place as a legend in the sneaker world. Debuting as part of the original “Be True” collection that revolutionized basketball shoe colorways in the mid-1980s, the shoe’s vibrant orange hue continues to resonate with sneaker enthusiasts. After gracing store shelves again in 2020 and 2022, Nike is bringing back the spirit of the former Big East powerhouse (now ACC member) Syracuse University with a fresh iteration featuring a slightly bolder shade of orange.
This new Nike Dunk Low “Syracuse” stays true to the classic “Be True” aesthetic with its clean, tone-on-white color blocking. Bold orange leather overlays instantly grab attention, mirroring the vibrant hues found on the interior lining, insoles, and rubber outsole. The smooth white leather base embodies the college-inspired charm that propelled the Dunk from a basketball court staple to a coveted lifestyle icon.
Nike’s recent focus on classic styling shines through in this Dunk Low, with a design that closely resembles past releases. However, a subtle difference sets this iteration apart: a red Nike logo adorns the white insoles, offering a touch of distinction for eagle-eyed sneakerheads.
The collegiate-inspired Nike Dunk Low “Syracuse” (Style code: DV0833-114) is scheduled to arrive this Fall season with a price tag of $115.
