Back in the 90s’s, sneakers weren’t as readily available in every corner of the globe like they are today. Before the boom of technology, social media, resell culture and everything in between, the most coveted releases weren’t as widely distributed, and there were times where only certain regions like Japan would receive certain launches. In today’s world, boutiques like Union — which are founded upon a deep-rooted love for streetwear and sneakers — are currently running with the torch to celebrate its love for the culture via special releases, and the upcoming Union x Nike Dunk Low “Passport Pack” does just that.
The retailer confirms that its newest travel-inspired Dunk Low project with Nike is a love letter to New York City, Los Angeles and Tokyo — three cities where Union has flagship stores. The shoes are designed to encourage you to get out and get what’s yours as they are symbolic of global exploration, cultural inspiration and personal evolution.
The “Pistachio” colorway will be the first of the trio to hit the shelves and will be dropping as a Union exclusive on February 11. A wider release for the other two renditions is slated to arrive in March.
