While there’s been a history of women’s-specific Dunks, including the Dunk Sky Hi and Sacai Dunk Lux, the Dunk Low Disrupt builds off of a premise of non-conformed distortion. The exaggerated tooling takes inspiration from Nike’s mid-’80s basketball catalog. Of course, there are elements from the Dunk, and also cues pulled from an obscure precursor, the 1984 Nike Air Train.

The resulting platform stance and slimmed shape combine to make an edgy new statement. Overlays, floating pieces and an exposed foam tongue further augment the Dunk Low Disrupt design.

On Friday we celebrated the upcoming drop of the Nike Dunk Disrupt with Frankie Collective and a group of female sneaker heads! We hosted a day of reworking where we up-cycled old Nike garments and taught the girls how to turn these unwanted pieces into new and unique items.

We loved meeting all these cool ladies that shared their creative minds with us. And a massive thank you to Frankie Collective for teaching us this super special workshop. ⁠

Under the slogan #TrueToYourCrew we decided to bring together our own crew. In our opinion a crew isn't about everyone looking the same but about sharing the same mentality, embracing our individuality and supporting each other. We came together to share our love for sneakers, fashion and reworking.

In an industry mainly dominated by men it was a special experience to come together as a group of strong creative women and learn from a female run business how to make waves in the streetwear industry. Today women play a huge part in the streetwear culture and their role is becoming ever more important.
