Many creative minds have contributed to the success of streetwear and skateboarding culture, but few have had a similar impact as Keith Hufnagel. Born and raised in New York City, Hufnagel found a sense of identity early on through skateboarding. His rebellious attitude piqued his curiosity during his teenage years as he rode through various corners of the city, eventually becoming a regular at Brooklyn Banks Skatepark - hallowed ground for skaters and BMXers in the Tri-State area.
Inspired by Hufnagel's birthplace and adopted hometown, the Nike SB Dunk Low pairs allusions to both the gritty concrete jungle where Keith fell in love with skateboarding and the sunnier but rougher Bay Area where he turned a personal project into a global brand.
We at Team SNKREMPIRE are really looking forward to the HUF x Nike SB Dunk Low "NYC" and will definitely strike at Release !
NIKE and its sports stars
This has also been the key to success, because NIKE became really big when it decided to push the brand through testimonials and to sponsor various athletes. Endorsers have included sports greats such as Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, LeBron James, Cristiano Ronaldo and. But also Rapper and other superstars are under contract with Nike as e.g. Travis Scott or also Kendrick Lamar.
Many of the achievements we take for granted today can be attributed to NIKE. For example NIKE Air - Chambers with pressurized gas in the midsole of some NIKE Sneaker. Examples include the NIKE Air Force 1 and the NIKE Air Max models. .
