Nike Dunk Pro SB Mid Tie Dye

The Nike SB Dunk Mid Pro SB - Tie Dye are available now! They feature a predominantly blue suede upper along with white leather inserts such as the toe box and lacing tabs. They also feature a multi-colored tie dye design on the shoe laces, and heel area. Accents including a red Nike swoosh, yellow outsole and contrast stitching which is always an added bonus. Nike Dunks have their own unique style, and while some of their shoes look like a pack of crayons left on a stove burner, some of them look pretty cool. And all of them are well made. Whatever you take on Nike being in the skate market, it is nice that they actually took the time to make skateboarding shoes that work well. Like everything with skateboarding, you should do what you want, and express yourself. If you like the look and feel of Nike Dunks SB’s, then go for them. People like the strong response and board feel that Nike Dunk SB’s give, and some of the colors are sick. It's also nice to have a pair of skate shoes that can double for other sports - most large puffy skate shoes don't work that well for other sports. And, to top all of this off, the Nike skate team is very strong with guys like X Games gold medalist Paul Rodriguez. Not many skate shoes last for three years on the market, but Nike Dunk Pro SB’s are still going strong.

The Nike Dunk Pro SB Mid - Tie Dye is one of the most notable members of the rather extensive Nike 'Mid' dunks family. This is a family it shares alongside the likes of Nike Dunk SB Mid Premium Navy White, the Nike Dunk Mid, the Nike Dunk Mid Pro SB Griptape and the Nike SB Dunk Mid Pro Sea Crystal. Of all the items on the 'mid-size' Nike dunks I have gotten to use over the years - and these are quite a number - I have to confess that it is the Nike Pro SB Mid - Tie Dye (which I only got to use recently), that I have gotten most enchanted with.

As its name suggests, Nike SB Mid - Tie Dye is one unapologetically colorful shoe, one on which almost all colors of the rainbow make an appearance. Looking at my particular pair, I can identify more than 7 different colors. On the bottom part of the sole, the part that is in contact with the ground for instance, there is yellow - a light hue of it. On the upper part of the sole, where the sole gets connected to the rest of the shoe, there is white - which later makes an appearance on the front region of the shoe adjacent to its tongue, and on its (original) shoelaces. Then there is black, on the front part of the shoe, especially on the patch that connects the different parts that make up the shoe's upper body. Yellow, this time a darker hue, shows up on the flap that is provided to supplement the shoe-lace as a mechanism for securing the shoe on the foot. Red is the color Dunk SB shoes use for its trademark 'tick' on the Nike Dunk Pro SB Mid - Tie Dye, with green making a showing at the very back of the shoe; where the tie and dye affair is most clearly manifest.

In terms of height, Nike Dunk Pro SB Mid - Tie Dye is quite a short shoe, one which more strictly speaking, would be classified as belonging to the Nike 'Low' dunks family. The rise in its gradient is gradual (and modest), starting from the front section of the shoe where the toes go in, and peaking towards the middle section of the shoe, so that (like all Dunks), it gets to its highest at the 'tip of the tongue' where the shoe's upper body meets its wearer's foot-trunk.

As alluded to earlier, for a tying mechanism, Nike use a combination of the traditional shoelace and a flap mechanism; which seems to be its preferred combination of securing mechanisms in all its modern dunks. The securing flap, of course, in addition to its primary role of keeping the shoe in place also serves the role of adding to colorfulness in this particular pair.

All said and done, Nike Pro SB Mid - Tie Dye comes across as a particularly ideal shoe; especially for casual use.
