FAMU x Nike Dunk Low ‘Rattlers’ DR6188-800

Description

The collaborative effort between Florida A&M University and Nike introduces an exciting rendition of the Dunk Low, aptly named the ‘Rattlers’ DR6188-800.

At its core, the shoe boasts a pristine white leather base that serves as a blank canvas for the vivid interplay of colors. Vibrant orange overlays, laces, and lining infuse energy and character into the design, harmoniously balanced by the presence of rich green Swooshes that seamlessly blend with the overall theme.

The design narrative extends beyond the colors alone. Notable features include the striking appearance of the school’s beloved rattlesnake mascot, proudly displayed on the tongues. This intricate detail pays tribute to the university’s spirit and team pride. On the tongue tags, discreetly positioned, lies text that adds an additional layer of connection to the institution’s essence. The year of the university’s establishment, 1887, is carefully embroidered onto the heels, serving as a reminder of its enduring legacy.

A captivating detail adorns the lateral forefoot in the form of the acronym “COLAC” (College of Love and Charity), a powerful representation of the university’s ethos. This serves as a testament to the institution’s commitment to fostering not just knowledge, but also compassion and goodwill.

Completing the design is a translucent outsole, adorned with captivating graphics that tie the entire story together. This outsole not only enhances the visual appeal of the shoe but also encapsulates the collaborative spirit that birthed this remarkable creation.
