Nike had a terrific year in 2022, and it intends to continue dominating in 2023. With a number of launches of its enduring and well-known styles, including the Air Force 1, Air Jordan 1, and Air Max 1, the swoosh brand maintained its prominence in the previous year. The Dunk silhouette will now take primacy for the shoe brand to continue its market-leading position in 2023.

The swoosh label will continue to push the Dunk silhouette in stores in response, particularly in the first half of 2023. The swoosh label has already shared a number of 2023 roster additions, including "Black Suede," "Easter," “Industrial Blue," and numerous others.

Sneakerheads get a sneak peek at an anticipated design that is reminiscent of Batman's most infamous foe as the relentless assault of the Nike Dunk variants continues. This model, which combines vivid purple and green uppers with a white base leather and a yellow gum outsole, evokes a classic "Joker" appearance.

The following is how the Swoosh label explains the origins and evolution of its storied Dunk Low silhouette:

“From backboards to skateboards, the influence of the Nike Dunk is undeniable. Although introduced as a basketball shoe in 1985, its flat and grippy soles were perfect for a neglected sports community—skaters.”

The description further mentions:

“Uncovering a subculture craving creativity as much as function, the Dunk released decades of countless colorways that continue to capture the soul of skaters from coast to coast.”

Given that the Dunk has developed into somewhat of a running joke in the footwear industry, there is an ironic connection to be drawn between the silhouettes. In 2016, it was a straight-to-outlet shoe, but due to the rule of "Panda" Dunks brought on by the several restocks on the Nike launch schedule, it became an immensely popular mainstream sneaker.

This appears to have had some impact on Dunk's image, but among sneakerheads who adored the design in the early 2000s, the Dunk will always be held in high regard.
