Nike Valentine Day Edition

Posted on Monday, June 8th, 2009 at 9:44 am

Nike Dunks have been around since mid 80s. What has started as basketball shoes for university leagues has continuously evolved. Although Nike paused awhile in the production of these shoes, the company resurrected them in 1998 and it was all for the best.

Here are the Top 5 freshest Nike Dunks. Check out which one you like to drool upon (if they are already out of stock) and which one you think you’d most likely buy real soon.

#5 Dontrelle Willis Dunks

This is part of the Nike Collection Royale. The Nike Dunk Highs of Dontrelle Willis are exclusive for the members. The first shoes in the series that has been released is the Lebron James “King of Spades”, which is available online at $90. Other designs in the collection include Ronaldinho “10 of Clubs Air Force Ones, Serena Williams “2 of Hearts” Dunks, and Michael Vick “Jack of Diamonds” Air Force Ones. Dontrelle Willis is the starting pitcher of the Detroit Tigers.

#4 Osaka Dunks

Japan is a big Nike fan club and two of the freshest Nike Dunks come from there. The Osaka Dunk or Doutonbori Dunk takes the fourth spot. The name has been used to pay tribute to the food of Osaka. Doutonbori also refers to one of the more popular icons in Japan, the drumming doll.

The Osaka Dunk is part of the 4-pack Japan City Attack Pack that has been designed after 4 cities, which include Osaka Fukouka, Nagoya, and Tokyo. This was the last one to be released and when it came out, it came in a wooden Nike box with an insole that shows the streets of Osaka.

#3 Nagoya – Golden Dolphin Dunk

The Nagoya Dunk is the 2nd shoe from the Japan City Attach Pack that made it to the Freshest Five. The Golden Dolphin is the symbol of the fourth largest city in Japan. It sits on top of the Nagoya castle. This pair is bright metallic gold with mint green inner lining. It is double stitched and its back end has scale designs to portray the famous fishing landmark.

#2 Vandal Valentine’s Day Limited

Produced as a limited edition and released in France, the Vandal Valentine’s Day pair exhibits very good artwork. On one side is a woman and on the other there’s an image of a king. A letter Q to represent the Queen of Hearts can also be found on the side where the king image is.

#1 Ice Blue

Ice Blue is a Nike Dunk High Premium pair, which was launched with the Metallic Gold/ White- Black and the Nike Dunk Supreme 2008 Varsity Red. Its body is metallic blue to give that flashy or shiny display. These are eye catchers especially when the sun gets to shine on it. The Ice Blue is not all pretty, it features the patent Nike Air Zoom technology. This technology makes this pair very durable and awesomely comfortable to wear.

So many new designs come out every now and ten and that will continue for so many more years because Nike is committed to provide the latest footwear to match the current needs.
