Nike is returning to the blue-and-white Dunk Low formula for Summer 2026 with the "Old Royal" colorway, a build that separates itself from similar releases through a key material choice on the overlays.
The upper starts with a Photon Dust leather base covering the toe box, side panels, and collar in a clean off-white tone. From there, Nike covers the mudguard, eyestays, Swoosh, heel tab, and back tag in Old Royal suede, a move that adds noticeable texture and depth to the blue sections rather than leaving the shoe as a straightforward two-tone leather pair. Old Royal carries through to the laces, sockliner, and rubber outsole, while a White midsole sits underneath to anchor the build. Branding is kept minimal, with white Nike logos on the tongue tag and heel, and white accents appearing on the blue printed insoles. A small metallic silver charm attached to the Swoosh near the lateral heel adds a subtle extra detail without disrupting the overall look.
The Nike Dunk Low "Old Royal" is set to release Summer 2026 through Nike and select retailers for a retail price of $120. To stay informed on all things Nike and to stay up to date with the latest releases, connect with us on Instagram and Twitter.
