Delays have afflicted sneaker releases for the past two years, making it difficult to mention any date with full confidence. Holidays, in Nike’s case, are especially problematic, as shoes like the Dunk Low “St. Patrick’s Day” and Air Force 1 “Year of the Tiger” have missed their mark by over a month. The Dunk Low “Halloween,” which is slated to drop April 1st, is similarly late — or, rather, quite a few months early.
A preemptive way of getting into the spirit, the colorway leverages classic Halloween signatures. Orange dresses the Swoosh as well as the lining and tongue, while black darkens the leather overlays across the toe, profile, and heel. And the latter fixtures, aside from referencing the night, camoflauge the eyes that are drawn all across in near invisible ink. The base is then rendered in a standard white neutral, matching that of the midsole but not the glow-in-the-dark outsole underfoot.
For a look at the Nike Dunk Low “Halloween” and our Store List, see below. These are currently expected to hit select retailers on April 1st, doing so in adults and GS sizes.
In other news, the Air Jordan 11 Midnight Navy is releasing on Black Friday.
