UNLEASH YOU INNER B-BALL STAR

 
They may trace their origins back to the basketball courts of the 1980s, but men’s Nike Dunks have never been so popular. Embrace retro Americana with our collection of high and low tops. In many ways, men’s Dunks are the classic Nike trainer. Born on America’s basketball courts, their distinctive paneling and bold Nike Swoosh are synonymous with b-ball’s golden era in the ’80s and ’90s. Now any of us can embrace our inner MJ and express our personal style in these eye-catching kicks.
 

THE EARLY DAYS OF MEN’S NIKE DUNKS

 

As the name suggests, Nike Dunks for men were originally designed to maximize basketball players’ on-court performance. All that running, leaping, landing, and pivoting make b-ball a speed-driven, high-impact sport. Staying light on your feet can mean the difference between a win and a loss. Dunks have evolved since those early days, and other shoes have taken their crown for elite NBA stars, but the thick sole, cushioned upper, and Nike Swoosh we see today are all clues to the Nike Dunk origin story.

 

AN ICON REBORN

 

Dunks have always been popular, but their star had dimmed a bit by the time the new millennium rolled around. That’s when they were discovered by a new generation of sneakerheads and collectors. These young buyers championed styles that were comfortable, and above all an extension of their personality. Dunks ticked both boxes, and their characteristic paneling meant that they could be made in almost any color or fabric. The choice between low tops and high tops also adds another variable. These options and their distinctive silhouette make Nike Dunks some of the most versatile and recognizable trainers around.
