Nike's 2022 'Día de Muertos' Collection Arrives This Month Here's an official look

Image
  The celebration of Día de Muertos has grown to become a yearly tradition for  Nike,  with the brand releasing new styles around the observance of the Mexican holiday in October. For 2022, the Swoosh is releasing this new set of  Air Force 1  and  Dunk  colorways. According to Nike, the “Dia de Muertos”  Air Force 1 Low  pictured here draws inspiration from Pan de Muerto, which is a circular-shaped bread that’s typically baked for the holiday to symbolize the cycle of life and death. For the Dunk High, the upper features an intricate pattern that references several customary items found at ofrendas, which are the offerings placed at the altars that pay tribute to the deceased loved ones and help guide their souls back home. Both the “Día de Muertos” Nike Air Force 1 Low and Dunk High colorways will be released on Oct. 26 via  SNKRS  for $140 each. Grab a closer look at both pairs below.
