New Zealander Parris Goebel, or simply Parris, is a world-renowned choreographer and dancer who recently made headlines for putting together Rihanna's highly anticipated Super Bowl LVII halftime performance. Now she's adding 'sneaker designer' to her ever-expanding resume with a Nike Dunk Low collaboration in the works.
The forthcoming release is primarily styled in a pink, brown, and green palette, including patent overlays and Swoosh branding. Logo flips are a significant of the shoe's story, with emblems appearing upside down on the tongue and heel. Parris' own logo is printed on the insoles and the laces feature custom gold Swoosh deubrés. A pre-yellowed midsole and pink rubber outsole complete the vision.
Parris launched an official campaign for Nike during Paris Haute Couture Week earlier this month. As of now, the Parris x Nike Dunk Low is slated to release this fall for $125.
UPDATE (10/16): Weeks have passed since Parris previewed her Dunk collab during her Goddess Awakened Performance in July, and now release details for the sneaker have been revealed. This Parris Goebel x Nike Dunk Low will be released on Oct. 24 at Nike.com and at select Nike Sportswear stockists globally.
"My choice of sneaker for dancing has always been a Nike Dunk," Parris said in a press release. "I have so many fond memories of creating and dancing in the shoe. As someone whose personal style is a mix of feminine and masculine, it was important for me to select colors and materials that balance between masculine and feminine energy. I want everyone to see themselves in my shoe, no matter how they identify."
