What made the Dunk High PRM EMB special?
The Nike Dunk High Embroidery features a theme inspired by the caps made by Sports Specialties in the '80s and '90s. This sneaker showcases a very interesting style, and a buyer shared that the "story behind the shoe is even better" than the shoe itself. It displays the throwback branding of Sports Specialties on the tongue and logo embroidery on the lateral heel area. Found on the insole is the "One Size Fits Most" detail, which can also be seen on the inner brim of the Sports Specialties cap. The sneaker's base displays dark textiles, a color similar to the textile material used on the caps.
