From Stillwater to the stratosphere, Nicole Hause’s meteoric ascent in skateboarding feels as unstoppable as her full-throttle style. Her fearless approach and infectious energy have seen the Minnesotan carve her way into the upper echelons of the skateboarding world; a Nike SB core team member and pro for Real Skateboards, she now adds an “off the chain” collaboration with Nike SB to her growing list of achievements.

Affectionately known as Dicky to those in the know, Nicole brings energy and control to the party; always finding the right line, whether soaring above transitions or attacking crusty street spots. Nicole’s Nike SB Dunk Low reflects her easy-going personality and all-in style, blending expressions of this personality into a stripped-back yet detail-rich design with the characteristic functionality of Nike SB’s skate tech.

Crafted with a Nicole-favoured tumbled white leather upper draped in University Blue textile details; a floating truncated punky plaid Swoosh and matching Nike heel tab add doses of her signature style, paying homage to her long-held love of vintage cars and the interior of her beloved ’79 K5 Blazer.

Digging deeper, the sock liner is feathered with a fine-line illustration of a hummingbird, a nod to her passion for twitching and airborne skating, whilst subtly drawing upon the shared mythological roots of Nicole’s name and the Nike brand, uniting them in a harmonious "Victory of the People" vision. The crisp white outsole gleams beneath the textured upper, and underfoot, the Dunk’s durable, skateable construction remains at the forefront.

The jewel of the Dunk, however, is a custom detachable chain, which doubles up as a charm bracelet. The Y2Kesque chain and pendant hanging from the left shoe deliver a bold and unconventional touch, which, like it’s designer, is unapologetically unique.
