NK SB Dunk Low Pro Purple Pigeon (PREMIUM ++)

Nike SB Dunk Low Pro “Purple Pigeon” — Overview

Heritage & Release

• The Purple Pigeon SB Dunk was originally released in 2006 as part of the Nike SB Dunk Low Pro series.

• It’s inspired by the legendary Pigeon SB Dunk (made famous in NYC), capturing a similar aesthetic but in a more accessible and wearable colorway.

Design & Colorway

• Upper: Predominantly Light Graphite (soft grey) suede, giving a muted base reminiscent of urban tones.

• Swoosh & Outsole: Contrasted with Prism Violet (purple) for a standout accent on the sides and underfoot.

• Tongue & Heel: Purple appears on the tongue tag and heel patch for cohesive detailing that reinforces the nickname.

• Midsole: Classic SB Dunk midsole in neutral grey to balance the upper and outsole tones.

Materials & Construction

• Built in the Nike SB Dunk Low Pro silhouette with quality suede and nubuck materials typical of SB releases from that era.

• Padded tongue and collar deliver the comfort and board feel SB fans appreciate.

Performance & Comfort

• Includes Zoom Air cushioning in the insole — a signature SB feature — for responsive support during skating or daily wear.

• The rubber outsole with pivot circles provides reliable grip on both board and street.

Cultural Notes

• While not as rare or hyped as the original Pigeon Dunks designed by Jeff Staple, the Purple Pigeon is celebrated by the SB community for its clean aesthetic and classic SB flavor.

• It carries nostalgic appeal for many sneakerheads who grew up with SB in the mid-2000s.
