But the best is yet to come. Across the lateral and medial sidewalls, you’ll find a pair of metallic silver Nike Swooshes. These join around the heel, which now has an intricate platter-esque design. The heavy-handed culinary aesthetic extends towards the insole too, where you’ll find a very fancy dinner plate complete with “Nike SB” inscribed in the middle.
The ‘Escargot’ will launch as part of a bigger collection, which is to include other classic silhouettes like the Air Force 1 and the Air Max 1. The very appropriately-named Air Jordan 4 SE ‘Paris Olympics’ will also be coming very soon, which could easily be mistaken for a grail from 2017.
The Nike SB Dunk Low ‘Escargot’ is set to drop within the coming weeks at Nike, the SNKRS app, and select shops globally for around $115.
