Nike SB teams up with an unusual partner for this Nike SB Dunk collab as we check out the Albino & Preto x Nike SB Dunk Low. If you’re not familiar, Albino & Preto is a Jiu-Jitsu uniform and lifestyle brand with the focus of bringing to life the common ground of every Jiu-Jitsu advocate which was established in 2011.
The Albino & Preto x Nike SB Dunk Low takes on a neutral color palette as the shoe dons a full Fossil upper in pearl weave gi fabric which is used on Brazilian jiu-jitsu uniforms. As seen below, the sneaker will come with tear-away uppers revealing a different color on each panel. These colors represent the belt colors in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. Additional details include black Swooshes with white embroidery, ?AP? branded heels, and graphic insoles. To cap off the look we see white rubber midsoles and black rubber outsoles.
Retailing for $130, the Albino & Preto x Nike SB Dunk Low is set to release on September 23rd via SNKRS. For a complete guide including official photos, release dates, pricing and where to buy, visit: Albino & Preto x Nike SB Dunk Low.
