Nike’s Best Food Inspired Releases.

There are those who are passionate about Food, those who are passionate about Sneakers. Then there are those who, like us, love both.

The link between fast food and trainer culture has become stronger and stronger in recent years, so we’ve collected some of our favorite food-themed sneakers; there’s no specific ranking because, you know, food preferences are subjective, right?

From Nike Dunks reminiscent of a lobster to Air Max 90s that make you want to savor a plate of crispy bacon; these are the tastiest food-themed Nike releases ever. Shoe your Food!

Nike Air Max 90 NRG Bacon

One of the most “mouth-watering” releases on this list is the Air Max 90 NRG Bacon: a crispy leather silhouette and palette reminiscent of fried bacon grains make this colorway of the iconic Air Max the go-to dish for every trainer and food lover.

Nike SB Dunk High Color Skates Kebab and Destroy

Imagine a succulent Kebab, wrapped perfectly in its food wrapper, but still allowing a glimpse of all the tasty colors of the Arabic bread, grilled and sliced meat, salad, tomatoes and creamy dips: this is what the upper of the Nike SB Dunk High Color Skate Kebab and Destroy looks like, one of the most coveted releases of 2021.

The Sneakers is inspired by Montreal’s famous Bagel shop, in fact its collector’s shoe box reproduces the box used by the store for bagels in every detail. Not to be missed!

Nike SB Dunk High Chicken and Waffle

A sweet and savoury high dish loved by everyone, especially in the States, is chicken and waffle!

Nike has released a version of the Dunk SB High inspired in every detail by Chicken and Waffle.

This delicious trainer has a fabric waffle upper, swoosh overflowing with maple syrup and “crispy” details reminiscent of fried chicken!

Nike SB Dunk Low Red Lobster

An iconic series in the Dunk SB Low family is the ‘Lobster’. Starting in 2008 with the “Red” colorway, considered one of the most coveted and beautiful compared to later versions, the first release was designed for New England-based Concepts store, as it is famous for its lobster dishes.

This version has been dressed in a Sport Red and Pink Clay color scheme, with delicate ‘speckled’ details reminiscent of carapace exoskeletons, even includes a purple elastic band around the toe as a nod to the bands used on lobster claws. This version includes a special box and accessories, a more unique than rare piece… for true collectors. One of the rarest Dunks in circulation since 2008.

Nike Dunk SB High “Turdunken”

The Nike SB Duck (Dunk) High Pro uses luxurious materials and iridescent detailing to create a design that mimics the look and feel of a duck destined for the embers.

The soft leather is textured to look like a duck feather, as is the suede material on the heel; the rubber sole is coloured to mimic the look of paws.

Nike Dunk SB High “Turdunken” Set and Shoe Box

The kit includes a collector’s shoe box reminiscent of a lit embers, a Concepts x Nerf football, Nike SB Dri-fit “chicken” socks, Nike SB Dunk Hi Pro trainers and three sets of laces – “cranberry”, “butter” and “gravy”, in a box packaged as if it were a single plate.

Nike SB Dunk High Strawberry Cough

The Nike SB Dunk High Strawberry Cough Red born in collaboration with Todd Bratrud is the latest release between the Oregon brand and the famous illustrator. This silhouette has been crafted in a blend of “furry” suede and tumbled leather, reminiscent, in every way, of the texture of a strawberry.

The clean red and green look winks at the early 2000s Nike SB, the strawberry theme is repeated on the back heel and in the insoles.

Nike SB Dunk Low Ben & Jerry’s Chunky Dunky

We end with one of the most beautiful food-inspired trainers ever: the Ben & Jerry’s Chunky Dunky Dunk!

Their structure, coloring and materials are reminiscent in every way of a Ben & Jerry’s ice-cream pack, with details in “fluff” and cow spotted, blue, yellow, and black like theirs and Swoosh that literally melts like ice cream in the sun.

Truly unique.
