If you aren’t afraid to rock imaginative colors, check out these Nike Sportswear Dunk Hi Premium kicks in burgundy. These Dunks feature a myriad of textures and stand out purple laces. These sneakers are definitely not for the faint of heart.
These shoes hit Nike Sportswear boutiques such as 21 Mercer, DQM and Atmos in New York, as well as UNDFTD out west earlier this week. Priced at $108, they aren’t a bad deal at all for a premium pair of kicks. Via Complex.
The Nike Dunk Hi Premium Baroque uses the camo print. This special print is a camouflage print and works well when coordinated with casual dress shoes. The camo print is set in the colors of the woods. It can be good for hiking and outdoor activities. These shoes will look good with plain colored bottoms. Some users would love to have these to go with their camouflages/ fatigues. Fans of Dunks would love to show off these to their friends. Nike will release these sneakers soon in Jan. 2009.
The toe box and mudguard are geared for some heavy action. The brown leather segment is repeated for the heel. The white accents in the lace, swoosh and midsole give the shoe a fresh look. The white areas are also indicators on how much dirt and action your shoes had. The classic gum sole keeps the Nike Dunk rooted to its traditions.
The tag at the tip of the tongue is grey colored. This blends with the neighboring section, which is the collar of the Hi ankle. The grey rim of the collar provides a detailed finishing touch. This shoe has a Spring theme and reminds me of the woods outdoors. Images.

The Nike Dunk Hi Premium TZ Ueno Panda is dedicated to Tokyo and the Panda. There is a panda at Tokyo’s Ueno Park and this shoe pays tribute to the special animal. This shoe is the last model in the series of limited edition Nike shoes. This whole series has every shoe dedicated to a different city in Japan.
This shoe is sold at Mita. It is packed in a special cage, to denote how the panda is caged in captivity. The shoe upper is covered in horse hair. The toe box is white and it has a surrounding mudguard that is black colored horse hair. The shoe lace is black and coordinates with the color scheme. The Nike swoosh is in black leather. The tongue is black and has a discreet tag at the tip. The use of horse hair is a good idea as the panda has thick furry skin and the sneaker bears a good resemblance to its inspiration. The midsole has two colors. Two thirds of it are black while the last remaining third is white. The outsole is white to give the shoe a clean look.
I like the design of this sneaker. The horse hair makes it look warm and inviting to wear.

This pair costs about 14,000 Yen and is sold at Mita.
The toe box has tiny perforations. Both the toe box and mudguard are made of suede. The midsection is made of smooth leather that has the number 8 embossed on it. This number denotes the day the Beijing Olympics starts; August 8, 2008.The pattern of 8 is rather discreet and looks very classy.
Over the midsection, the Nike swoosh is attached. The base of the heel has a strap that extends up to help form the last pair of shoe lace holes for the shoe. This is made of suede. The anklet of the shoe is made of knitted wear.
The shoe lace and tongue are in the same deep dark color as the main body of the shoe. I like the clean, standard color look of this sneaker. The midsole and outsole are white in color to provide a clean look for the shoe.
The outsole had concentric circles at the front and a half oval shape of treads at the heel. I like the rich mix of materials used in this shoe.
The shoe’s design and color would make it suitable for use anywhere. I like the use of the black color and the various types of leather for the shoe. The mixture of suede and smooth leather is interesting.
