The Beaverton, Oregon-based Nike label has introduced multiple successful footwear lines over the years, including the iconic Dunk, which debuted back in 1985. The beloved silhouette was designed by Peter Moore and took inspiration from four other classic silhouettes, i.e., Air Jordans, Legend, Terminator and Air Force 1.

The four iconic shoes blended to form a collegiate basketball shoe that soon took over the world due to its clean and interesting color blocking. Soon the basketball silhouette turned into a lifestyle and skateboarding shoe, therefore conquering every aspect of the sneakerheads' life.

The silhouette is one of the first Swoosh label models to introduce the two-toned color-blocking schemes. To further provide fans with multiple options in regular rotations, the swoosh label continues to launch more makeovers of the silhouette every month upon the high, low, SB, mid, and other iterations. The Dunk catalog will further extend in May 2023.

Ahead, Sportskeeda has listed 5 upcoming Dunk Colorways for the month of May 2023.
