The Nike Dunk Low returns in a familiar University Red colorway, making it this week’s biggest drop. Keep reading to peep other great sneakers releasing for the beginning of June.
Nike Dunk Low University Red (2020)
2020 certainly holds true to being the year of the Nike Dunk with the return of the popular University Red colorway. Originally named after St. John’s University, the shoe was featured as a Dunk High in the Be True To Your School pack in 2005, but now the sneaker returns in low cut.
The Nike Dunk Low University Red packs plush full-grain leather throughout the entire upper of the sneaker. White contrasts the red color blocking, an element of the shoe that will be recognizable for its resemblance to the Air Jordan 1 “Chicago”.
Watch for the Nike Dunk Low University Red to release on the SNKRS app and select Nike stockists for $100.
UPDATE: The Nike Dunk Low University Red release has been pushed to 7/1 in the US, but will still be releasing on 6/12 in the EU on Nike’s EU SNEAKRS app

Nike Space Hippy Pack
When first revealing their upcoming Space Hippy pack, Nike was as blunt as ever, stating that the sneaker models were “Trash”. And they’re not trying to be negative or self-deprecating. This week’s Space Hippy pack introduces five new sneaker models that are, indeed, crafted from trash. Recycled materials were used to craft all five of the sneakers, each entirely unique from the Nike catalogue.
The uppers on each Nike Space Hippy sneaker is constructed with a knitted upper that the Swoosh is calling “Space Waste Yarn,” utilizing recycled polyester. Each midsole, called “Crater Foam,” is made from a blend of ground up foam to bring comfort to your feet as you reduce your carbon footprint.
The Nike Space Hippy will release on Nike’s EU SNEAKRS app this week, with pricing $130-180.
