Following the release of the ever-popular “Kentucky” Dunk Low in 2020, Nike is dropping a “Reverse Kentucky” colorway for the silhouette later this year.

The Nike Dunk Low “Racer Blue” flips the classic “Kentucky” color blocking, which sees the shoe feature a blue leather base instead. The Swoosh logo and overlay panels are constructed in crisp, white leather while the blue highlights the laces, heel branding, rubber outsole and tongues. The classic rubber outsole sits on top of the white midsole to round out the design.

The Nike Dunk Low “Racer Blue” is expected to release in select retailers and online at Nike for a retail price of $100 USD. Stay tuned for more information.

Elsewhere in footwear, take a look at the Air Jordan 7 SE “Sapphire.”
