Japanese graphic artist VERDY has once again collaborated with Nike SB to create a unique iteration of the popular Nike SB Dunk Low. The upcoming "VISTY" colorway pays homage to a character created by VERDY, which was first released as a plush toy in late 2021.
The VERDY x Nike SB Dunk Low "VISTY" features a multicolored arrangement inspired by the pastel hues of the VISTY character. The mixed material build includes a green hairy toe box, midfoot panel, and tongue, while the overlays are crafted from blue corduroy. Pink leather Swooshes and a matching hairy collar add to the colorful design, with yellow laces and midsole sitting atop a green rubber outsole.
The collaboration also includes special details such as thematic artwork of VISTY skateboarding on the interior side of the woven tongue tag and a matching keychain that comes with each pair. These unique elements further showcase VERDY's creative vision and the playful nature of the VISTY character.
After months of anticipation and previews, the VERDY x Nike SB Dunk Low "VISTY" is finally set to release on September 19. Fans can expect the shoe to be available via Nike SNKRS and select skate shops at a price of $135 USD. The collaboration has garnered significant attention from sneaker enthusiasts and fans of VERDY's work, making it one of the most highly anticipated releases of the year.
In addition to the "VISTY" colorway, VERDY has also teased a "VICK"-themed colorway of the Nike SB Dunk Low, as well as a collaboration on the Nike SB Ishod 2. These releases are expected to drop alongside the "VISTY" iteration, giving fans even more opportunities to own a piece of VERDY's creative vision.
