The Nike SB Dunk Low Beijing Metallic Gold was released exclusively in China in 2014. The sneaker was inspired by the hutong alleys that are found in China’s capital, Beijing, that exemplify the urban architecture found throughout the city.


The upper on this Nike SB Dunk Low features a combination of textured dark grey panels made from leather and soft grey panels constructed out of suede. Dark grey panels that sit around the collar and are designed to look like marble. There are also gold swooshes with red outlines and red branding on both the tongue and heel that tie back to the shoe's Chinese influence.


What we love most about this special-edition SB Dunk Low is its unique backstory and its meaningful design. Each element of the sneaker stands for something.
