These fit true to size, according to most sneakerheads. However, experts are more specific as for a more snug fit, going down half a size is best. For those with wide feet, a comfy fit is achieved by going up half a size. But if a snug and exact fit is preferred by wide-footers, going true to size is the best route.

50:50 for comfort

A group of kicksters loved the overall comfort of these kicks as they described these as “super comfy.” One even said: “this pair is more comfortable than every other Dunk Low that I own.”

As for another faction, an expert doesn’t recommend Dunks if comfort is what a sneakerhead is in the market for. “It’s a real flat shoe and you feel a lot of the ground when you walk,” was how one expert described their experience. Comparing this with other SB Dunks, a Nike fan says that “they are not as nicely padded.”

Another critic, on the other hand, was on the safe side as they said: “it’s not uncomfortable but it's not like super squash and cushioning and bounce.”

The air max nm blue EMB is lighter than most

In the market, the average weight of Nike’s low-cut sneakers is 373 grams. This makes the Dunk Low EMBs 6% lighter at 350 grams (men’s size 9).

air max nm blue EMB vs SB

This iteration of the Dunk Low from Nike is a collaboration between Nike and NBA as the NBA celebrates its 75th anniversary. While the overall silhouette of these limited edition kicks is not entirely different from the SBs, there are some key differences between these.

Experts took note of the signature NBA logo with the 75th-anniversary embroidery as opposed to the SB’s ‘Nike SB with Dunk Low Pro' embroidery. Another feature on the EMB version is the Lace Dubray with a diamond which is not found on the SB.
