An unadorned 45 macchiato, please. Thanks. After the waffle-inspired version, Nike steps back up on the bar counter, this time to launch the new SB Dunk Low Starbucks Premium: a limited edition of its famous sneakers reimagined in homage to the international coffee chain. The main color seems to recall that of freshly brewed coffee, with its multiple shades, while the sole, tongue, swoosh, and laces alternate the green and white of the brand.
Rest assured, no Starbucks Mermaid and no invasive logo appear on the shoe (which fortunately does not fall into the “staff uniform” effect), while the various shades of brown inspired by coffee waves complete everything with originality. The Nike SB Dunk Low Starbucks Premium is on sale for $100. About the price of twenty frappuccinos.
