Nike Golf Pays Tribute to the Iconic Nike Dunk Shoe with the
Introduction of the Nike Dunk NG
Introduction of the Nike Dunk NG
BEAVERTON, Ore. (August 23, 2011) * There will be a familiar iconic
shoe showing up on the feet of Nike Athletes Michelle Wie and Anthony Kim.
Both young athletes will be sporting the new Nike Dunk (NG) Golf shoe.
Wie will debut the colorful shoes at this week¹s Women¹s Canadian Open
and Kim will wear them in the coming weeks on the PGA Tour.
A Nike brand franchise with a wide appeal, the Dunk has history,
heritage, and a consumer cultural connection that Nike Golf respects
and celebrates. The new Nike Dunk NG, which inspires individuality and
personal expression, will now be available for golfers starting January
1, 2012.
Staying true to the original Nike Dunk which was created 25 years ago,
Nike Golf has kept the original last to ensure that the Nike Dunk NG
feels just the same as the Dunks that people have grown to love without
compromising performance for golf. With golf specific spikes on the
outsole and golf specific waterproof leather, the Nike Dunk has been
transformed to perform on the course.
Keeping in line with the strong personality and attitude of the Nike
Dunk, the Nike Dunk NG allows athletes to show their true colors on the
course. The energy of Soar Blue, Safety Orange, Court Green for men
and Spark, Orange Glow and Mint for women allow consumers to have a
bold, athletic look while coordinating with the apparel from the Nike
Golf Sport Collection.
The Nike Dunk NG comes with two sets of shoelaces, allowing athletes to
either accentuate the bright color of the shoe or to opt for
traditional white. With full-grain waterproof leather, the Nike Dunk
NG can battle the elements of poor weather conditions. The Scorpion
Stinger Spikes ensure that traction is not an issue for the Nike Dunk NG.
A TOUCH OF NIKE DUNK HISTORY
The original Nike Dunk was created as a basketball shoe in 1985. After
it was introduced to the world, the Nike Dunk started a commotion when
basketball teams began wearing them to match their uniforms. New to
the scene and already making a lasting impression, the Nike Dunks
enjoyed a widespread following and massive popularity almost instantly.
This new expression of style lasted through the years and Dunks have
become the prized shoes for sneakerheads as well as fashion statements
for anyone looking to add vintage style to their shoe collection. Now
the Nike Dunk enters golf.
