When it comes to color combinations throughout the Nike Dunk line, no pairing is as common as “Sail” and a second color. Throughout the style’s decades of usage, this coupling has proven timeless. Offering either the overlays or the base to its primary hue, this approach continues to offer new looks for the many Dunk iterations that Nike has created. Now, the Dunk High has been prepared in yet another fresh presentation with a “Monarch” colorway.

Opting for a “Sail” leather base, its canvas overlays opt to make the most noise as an orange “Monarch” shade has been included across the upper — including at the laces, tongue and leather Swooshes. Its classic stitched sole unit further emphasizes this duo as a “Sail” midsole rests atop a “Monarch” rubber outsole to complete the look.

As of now, no release information regarding the Nike Dunk High “Monarch” has been shared. Enjoy an official look at the pair above and stay tuned for more information as the colorway is expected to launch in the coming months at a price of $125 USD via Nike and select retailers worldwide.
