We’re more than a month away from the official global launch of this new collection, but if you were sneaked a pair prior to the D – day (that’s March 27 2013) then you know that there’s something in the Nike Dunk Sky High City Pack for every major Fashion Week city! And running from venue to venue in a pair of wedge sneakers would be so much easier!
New York Fashion Week is wrapped by now so you can already forget about wearing the black textured Nike Dunk Sky High City Pack New York! Unless you want to be considered ‘so last week!’. Next is London Fashion Week, so let’s check out the London sneaker after the jump!
Nike Dunk Sky High London is all gorgeous, my favorite, I think, in red tartan! Next is Paris with black and white textile upper, Milan with textured croc – style brown leather and golden swoosh.
Tokyo has all the right elements to steal the show with its holographic patches and swoosh on the tan felt upper. Ever since Isabel Marant Willow wedge sneakers have made their way onto almost every models’ wardrobe and from there on straight on street fashion reports, the new urban sports shoes keep on popping up in almost every brand’s portfolio.
This isn’t the first time Nike has tried the wedge design and might not be the last either – my question is (for all of you who already own a pair of wedge sneakers): are these really worth the hype? And another personal curiosity, which addresses also to those who don’t already own a pair: would you rather own the original Isabel Marant Willows or any brand/less wedge sneaker will do?

I rather like the wine coloured high tops/ wedge runners!
OMG, I’m so out off fashion…..I still were my 2002 black Nike sneakers with the subtle logo…..
Ah, these are probably great fun for sneaker fans and/or devoted fashion fans…..I keep on walking on my ‘classic Nikes’….:)
i have four pairs of the Nike ‘Dunk Sky Hi” in an all suede sage green and black and until you’ve put your foot in one you won’t know what shoe epiphany you’re missing. it’s a bit like walking with marshmellows surrounding your foot. enough height to walk comfortably and without problems after a long day of shopping. unlike any pair of shoe i’ve EVER owned, which says a lot.
I just adore these sneakers. I bought them in black,white & Black and white. When I got the first pair that was my first pair of sneakers in 7 years! I’ve never liked sneakers but when I saw these they were a must. I trust nike, they fit true to size, and comfortable ( I slip a dr scholls for extra comfort). As a college student walking is a must and doing it in style is a plus!
