Nike SB Dunk Low “City of Love” Coconut Milk/Light Bone

While arguably the most romantic day of the year, Valentine’s Day can easily conjure up greater feelings of loneliness. And if you, like many of us, lament the holiday for its over-glorification of love, both Nike and I assure you that your soulmate is most certainly out there. You’ll just have to trust that the red string of fate leads you swiftly to their embrace.

For the uninitiated, the red string of fate is the belief that everyone’s pinky finger is tied to an invisible thread, one that will inevitably lead you to your destined person. Crafted with a satin base, plush suede, and textured tumbled leather overlays, these sneakers capture the essence of romance effortlessly. What sets them apart is the clever incorporation of a red string seamlessly woven into the Nike SB logo on the tongue, a powerful symbol of the enduring connection represented by the red thread of fate. While much of the shoe is understated in form — consisting almost entirely of neutral colors — the pair does visualize the legend across its insoles, depicting two hands connected by said imperceivable cord. What’s more, the latter also wraps around the Swoosh of the adjacent tongue label. To round off the lovable design, a white rubber sole adorned with red stitching along the midsole completes the picture.

Dunk vs SB Dunk: What’s the Difference Between the Sneakers?

The most noticeable difference between the two sneakers are their tongues. On the Nike Dunk, you get a slim, mesh tongue. On the SB Dunk, the tongue has been beefed up to provide more cushion and protection. By being thicker, the tongue helps with the fit as well. It enables the sneaker to mold to your feet, preventing any slipping or wiggling. The tongue is held down with elastic straps which provide an added layer of lockdown. As a bonus, it allows you to slip the SB Dunk on and off without having to mess with finicky laces.
