We've been seeing the Nike SB Dunk Low x Bronx Girls Skate collab being teased for quite some time now, so I was pretty stoked when I started seeing all the best shops across the country opening up raffles for the kicks ahead of their January 27 release (although some shops might be dropping them a few days earlier).
This collaboration is way more than just another Dunk drop. It's something to celebrate.

"The moment we’ve all been waiting for has finally arrived!" Bronx Girls wrote on Instagram. "Come celebrate Bronx Girls Skate as we make NYC history with the first ever Nike SB Dunk collaboration made by and for The Bronx."
Boom! You know Bronx Girls Skate is going to celebrate the drop in style. Peep the IG post above for all the info. If you're in or around New York on January 24, this should be a no-brainer!
Mel Ramirez and Kava Vasquez have been holding it down with Bronx Girls Skate for over five years now, pushing to make skateboarding more welcoming and accessible for girls and women across NYC.
They’ve popped up everywhere—from Time Out New York to Hypebae—and for good reason. These two are always on the move, organizing meetups, running workshops, and throwing skate events all across the five boroughs. Help them and the rest of the community celebrate this huge milestone January 24th! Big ups to all involved. Love to see it.

Nike SB Dunk Low x Bronx Girls Skate
For their first collaboration with Nike SB, the Bronx Girls Skate Dunk Low reinterprets the iconic colors of NYC transit with an Uptown homage to the Boogie Down. Keeping it classic with a foundational black and white colorway, the Bronx Girls Skate Dunk Low is constructed with a luxe Stingray texture pebbled leather and white Swoosh. Pulling in color hits from the NYC train lines they use to navigate the city, the overlays feature green, orange, and red edge highlights with three coordinated lace options. The semi-translucent outsole continues the subway theme with custom art, BXGS graffiti lettering, and “The Bronx, The World” inscriptions on the left and right outsole heels. BX all day, the Bronx Girls Skate Dunk features door knocker earring-inspired NY heel jewelry, coordinated nameplate dubraes and a poetic send-off penned by Kava and Mel on the sockliner art.
