Winterized sneaker season is just around the corner, and Nike's ahead of schedule with new GORE-TEX Dunk Lows. That's right. The sportswear giant is running back its waterproof Dunks in fresh colorways like "Oil Grey.
The "Oil Grey" pairs land with black and bluish grey leather uppers, coupled with, of course, GORE-TEX to keep sneakerheads dry and fly throughout the day. The tech also makes the Dunks quite breathable, which is another plus.
Nike dished out GORE-TEX Dunks last fall, as well as some super-winterized Air Force 1s. The Fall/Winter 2026 season promises more weatherproof street sneakers.
Indeed, on top of the Dunks, Nike is also dropping some Air Force 1 Mids with Vibram and GORE-TEX materials. Translation: the brand's releasing military-level winter "boots."
But for those interested in the "Oil Grey" Dunks, the GORE-TEX sneakers are expected to drop on Nike's website in October. It's unknown if there are additional colorways, but given Nike's generosity with its all-weather-ready sneakers, never say never.
