Nike Dunk Low White Black
A massive wave of global restocks has kept the Nike Dunk Low White Black one of the most popular sneakers for two consecutive weeks. If these restocks keep happening, the Dunk Low could take the spot of the Nike Air Force 1 Low Whites as the most traded sneaker in StockX history.

Nike SB Dunk Low Polaroid
Nike SB and world-famous camera maker, Polaroid, teamed up for the Nike SB Dunk Low Polaroid.
The Nike SB Dunk Low Polaroid draws inspiration from the color spectrum found in Polaroid’s logo and the casing of its instant film. Atop a black Durabuck upper, a triple-layered Swoosh creates a rainbow effect by cleverly overlapping blue and red patent leather Swooshes with a yellow transparent Swoosh. At the heel, white patent leather nods to the composition of Polaroid’s instant film. From there, color spectrum embroidery on the toe and co-branded embroidery at the heel complete the design.
The Nike SB Dunk Low Polaroid releases on Tuesday, April 12th for $120 on the SNKRS app and in select skate shops.
