The Magic Recipe

 

 

Within the past couple of years, Nike’s exclusivity and hype have skyrocketed exponentially. The reason? Their unmatched materials and excellent craftsmanship. Hence, selecting the SB as the silhouette for the collaboration couldn’t be a better choice, especially due to this sneaker’s ever-premium detailing that works so well with this collaboration. Aside from their colors, the three pairs look fairly similar upon first glance. They all feature a bold swoosh, a black midsole, a translucent outsole, and fun additional designs such as the eyes at the heels, the cartoonish tags on the tongues, and illustrations of Mojo JoJo featured on the insoles. But here’s an interesting fact for you: the three colorways utilize different fabrics and materials when it comes to their respective materials, which highlights Nike’s diverse prowess. Let’s take an even closer look at these unique offerings, shall we?

 

 

Starting with the leader of the group, Blossom. If you’re looking for a fun pink sneaker, her sneaker is the one for you. The Powerpuff Girls SB Dunk Low "Blossom" sneaker features a smooth nubuck with a glittery design on the upper, a nod to her vibrant personality. As for the swoosh, it sees an orange color, which, if you’re a fan of the show, you’d know is indicative of Blossom's hair. Moreover, two pink eyes can be found at the heels looking off to the side with a little smile at the bottom. To top it all off, a symbol of blossom can be found on the places where a little pink heart sits.

 

 

If you’re looking to add a touch of emotion to your collection, then The Powerpuff Girls SB Dunk Low "Bubbles" is the right answer for you. This colorway features a blue textured upper that gives the sneaker a fun, bubbly look - much like its character. The yellow swoosh and blue eyes at the heels play on the characters hair and eye color, respectively.

 

 

Last but not least, we have The Powerpuff Girls SB Dunk Low "Buttercup” in the green colorway. Similar to its counterpart, this offering has a smooth nylon finish, indicative of Buttercup’s tough-to-break character. With its jet-black swoosh and black midsoles, this colorway has a bolder look in contrast to its counterparts. Finally, the green eyes of Buttercup found at the heel blend seamlessly into the rest of this sneaker.
