Nike Trainer Dunk Lows for the 2008 Olympics

swimmingdunklow.jpg

Every shoe company seems to have Olympic fever this winter. Nike has been active in putting out dozens of shoes modeled after the Olympic medals, historic Olympic Games and specific events. The Nike Trainer Dunk Lows shown above are designed for swimming enthusiasts.

A close examination of the photo above will help you see why these shoes are distinctive. The gold accents and bright-white paint may obscure the fact that there are clear panels behind the swooshes and along the toe boxes. This Trainer Dunk Low is a glorified sandal passing as a pair of cross trainers.

I may not appreciate the clear paneling but there is another distinctive touch that Nike added that is great. Pull out the insoles of the Olympic Gold Trainer and you will see rows of lane markers. The insoles cannot be seen by anyone but the wearer, however, so I give these Trainers a low mark in terms of design.
