According to KCDC owner Amy Gunther Ellington, the Nike SB Dunk High KCDC takes its inspiration from pink military boots of NYC's hardcore scene, Nike SB founder Sandy Bodecker's earliest SB Dunk designs, and the shop's pink-bricked build. The shoe features a pink Durabuck upper with premium suede overlays and smooth black leather Swooshes. A KCDC branded looped heel tab and gum-bottom soles nod to the look of Doc Marten-style boots. On the interior, green sock liners with KCDC graphics add a subtle contrast.
