The Alexis Sablone x Nike Dunk Low SB ‘Chameleon’ is inspired by a chameleon’s color-shifting skin. The leather upper features a crisp white base with a moss green Swoosh in a bumpy reptilian texture. The scaly design is also applied to the forefoot and heel overlay, covered in a top layer in varying green shades that wears away to reveal vibrant fuchsia coloring. The Nike SB tongue tag is appended with a ‘Chameleon’ wordmark, while Alexis Sablone’s initials appear on the back heel. Anchoring the sneaker is a durable cupsole that pairs vintage off-white sidewalls with a dark green rubber outsole.

Design & Colorway:
- Upper: The upper of the Alexis Sablone x Dunk Low SB ‘Chameleon’ is crafted from a mix of premium leather and suede. The main feature of this sneaker is the iridescent chameleon-colored suede on the overlays, which shifts in color depending on the light. The sneaker’s dynamic, reflective nature offers a unique and bold look, as hues of green, purple, and blue appear to change when viewed from different angles, mimicking the color-changing qualities of a chameleon.
- Swoosh: The Nike Swoosh on the ‘Chameleon’ edition is made from black leather, providing a sharp contrast to the iridescent upper. This dark accent makes the swoosh pop while maintaining the sleek design.
- Toe Box & Side Panels: The toe box and side panels are done in a complementary black leather material, providing a balanced contrast to the colorful chameleon suede. The combination of suede and leather creates a mix of textures that give the shoe a refined and stylish appearance.
Materials:
- Premium Leather & Suede: The premium leather on the toe box and side panels offers durability and structure, while the iridescent suede on the overlays provides a softer, more flexible feel. This material combination enhances the overall comfort, functionality, and look of the sneaker.
- Textured Suede: The chameleon-colored suede overlays are not only visually striking, but they also offer a tactile texture that adds to the luxury and premium feel of the shoe. The suede’s dynamic color-shifting effect makes the sneaker stand out from other designs in the Dunk Low series.
Sole & Comfort:
- Zoom Air Cushioning: Like most Nike SB sneakers, the ‘Chameleon’ Dunk Low comes equipped with Zoom Air cushioning in the midsole. This low-profile, responsive cushioning system absorbs shock and provides support during high-impact activities like skateboarding, all while maintaining a close-to-the-ground feel for excellent board control.
- Rubber Outsole: The rubber outsole features a traditional herringbone tread pattern, offering excellent grip and traction for skateboarders. This tread pattern ensures stability and durability, which is critical for performing tricks and maintaining control on the board.
Design Highlights:
- Chameleon Colorway: The standout feature of the Alexis Sablone x Dunk Low SB ‘Chameleon’ is the iridescent chameleon suede overlays that change color when viewed from different angles. This adds a dynamic and unique touch, setting the sneaker apart from other Dunk Low releases. The color-shifting material adds depth and intrigue to the overall design, making the shoe a true standout.
- Black Leather Accents: The black leather Swoosh and leather toe box and side panels provide contrast to the bright, iridescent suede, giving the shoe a sleek, structured look that balances the more playful chameleon colorway.
