Summary

Nike SB is expanding its general-release catalog with a fresh colorway for the Fall 2026 season

The design blends clean tones of Saffron Quartz yellow and vibrant Pear green across the upper

Hidden heavy metal and pyrotechnic inspirations are placed across the heel and graphic sockliners

Name: Nike SB Dunk Low “Saffron Quartz”
Colorway: Saffron Quartz/Pear-Buff Gold
SKU: IR1940-800
MSRP: $130 USD
Release Date: Fall 2026
Where to Buy: Nike

Nike is cooking up a vibrant new color blocking for its premier skateboarding silhouette with the upcoming SB Dunk Low “Saffron Quartz”. The inline drop avoids the traditional hype of a collaboration to focus on premium material execution and playful, retro-inspired graphics.

The upcoming model splits its layered upper into distinct, colorful thirds. A bright Pear green covers the toe box and forefoot overlays, shifting into soft warm yellow and golden hues of Saffron Quartz and Buff Gold across the midfoot and collar. Grounding the bright tones is a muted midsole that transitions into a darker Sequoia outsole decorated with lime green speckling.

The design packs an extra punch through its covert detailing. The heel displays a unique Nike logo rendered in a jagged, metal-inspired typeface accented by subtle flame embroidery. Inside, the insole feature an explicit graphic of an open mouth surrounded by flames, hinting at a pyrotechnic or hot-breath motif behind this special in-house project.
