The Cork Nike Dunk Low Celebrates CLOT’s 20th Anniversary!

20 years can pass by in the blink of an eye, right? That’s exactly how we feel about Edison Chen’s CLOT. So naturally, the best thing to do is to celebrate the right way: with a pair of sneakers. And what’s better than a Nike collaboration to commemorate the brand’s journey? So, there we are celebrating 20 years of CLOT with the CLOT Nike Cork Dunks. Read on to find out why the kicks are worth copping on drop day along with all the cool bits about them!

A Little Backstory of the CLOT Nike Cork Dunks

Before we get into the upcoming release, we gotta mention that the partnership goes way back. In fact, you can check out the full history of the Nike CLOT partnership right here. And if we’re honest, CLOT has mostly delivered some sick kicks and colorways. From Jordans to AF1s, Dunks, and Air Maxes, CLOT certainly has a versatile lineup. And now, the latest addition to that lineup is a pretty corky-looking Dunk!

The inspiration behind the CLOT Nike Dunk Low Cork is the beginning of Edison Chen’s creative process. You see, Chen used to use corkboards for his mood boards. According to him, every creative needs a mood board! So, that kinda explains the cork-like design of the sneakers. Oh, fun fact: a version of this idea was supposed to drop in 2013 to celebrate CLOT’s 10th anniversary!

Beyond the Cork in the New CLOT Nike Dunk Low Cork

So, we covered the cork part, but what about the rest of the design? Let’s take a look at what these babies are bringing to the table! Starting with the heel, we can spot the CLOT logo on the side, but the heel tabs have a story to tell. If you flip the tabs, you’ll see 2003 and 2023 on each shoe in Arabic and Chinese numerals. You can also find the Nike branding on the tongue! But you see, the most exciting things about these kicks are the accessories.

First off, you can attach the side swoosh with Velcro, and you get 6 options to choose from. The options are red silk, snakeskin, metallic rose gold, reflective, Bordeaux velour, and turquoise. But that’s not all, because CLOT and Nike took it up a notch with three sets of laces: white, black and red, and turquoise. Finally, the outsole will come in dark brown to complete the look.

According to Edison Chen, the goal of the CLOT Nike Dunk Low Cork is to give you a room to express yourself. From mixing and matching to DIY-ing your own sets of Velcro swooshes, you’re free to do whatever you want! So if you consider yourself a creative force, this is a great shoe to start your customization hobby with.
