UPDATE (September 6, 2022): Following reports of Nike potentially increasing the prices of its Dunk sneakers, the Swoosh shared that it will not be doing so, as confirmed in a statement to HYPEBEAST.
ORIGINAL STORY (September 2, 2022): According to industry insiders, Nike is planning to increase the prices of its Dunk models, which have become some of the Swoosh’s best-selling sneakers in recent years.
Accounts like @brandon1an are suggesting that beginning next quarter, the company will raise retail prices by $10 USD. This includes the Dunk Low, Dunk High and all SE Dunks, meaning that the low-cut version will go from $110 to $120 USD, and the high-top iteration will go from $120 to $130 USD. The news comes after the latest MSRP increase, which happened earlier this year.
The rumors don’t come as a huge surprise considering the sneaker industry, like all others, being affected by inflation and supply chain issues since the pandemic.
Nike has yet to comment on the rumors but stay tuned as we learn more.
