Straight from professor Utonium's lab, Nike SB collides with the iconic Cartoon Network series for a cool three-part drop. Paying homage to Townsville's heroes – Bubbles, Buttercup, and Blossom – the collection blends pop-art vibes with signature character details. Step into the coolness as Nike SB channels the animated energy.
Originally titled "Whoopass Stew!" and crafted by animator Craig McCracken, the renamed pilot took flight in '95, earning Cartoon Cartoons' green light for the full Powerpuff Girls series in '98. This fusion of classic superhero narratives, pop culture flair, and cheeky humor birthed the in-series Powerpuff Girls. Created by the fictional Professor Utonium in his quest for the "perfect little girl," the trio emerged from a mix of sugar, spice, and everything nice. The unexpected addition of Chemical X bestowed upon them a suite of superpowers – from x-ray vision and energy projection to flight and superhuman senses.
Bubbles takes center stage in the Powerpuff Girls pack with the Bubbles Nike SB Dunk Low Pro, embodying sweetness and charm. Crafted with textured leather and synthetic leather uppers, inspired by her endearing persona, this Dunk radiates the essence of the beloved character. Vibrant yellow accents grace the interchangeable laces and Swooshes, paying homage to Bubbles' iconic blonde pigtails. The black midsole and icy blue rubber outsole draw inspiration from her distinctive dress.
Classic SB Dunk features shine through, including a circular underfoot tread, a perforated toe box, and Zoom Air inserts. The satin-like tongue boasts intricate series logo detailing, and the Nike SB Bubbles tongue labels add a bespoke touch. Completing the look are custom Mojo Jojo insole artwork and embroidered eye and smile details on each heel. Step into nostalgia with the Bubbles Nike SB Dunk Low Pro – a whimsical fusion of style and animated magic.
Meet Buttercup, the embodiment of spice and action, encapsulated in the Buttercup Nike SB Dunk Low Pro. Dressed in a distinctive green colorway, this Dunk showcases satin-like leather and synthetic leather uppers, mirroring Buttercup's fiery personality. Reflective panel trims nod to her unique superpowers, while the black Swoosh and interchangeable laces take cues from her iconic cowlick hair.
Lastly, Blossom, the leader of the Powerpuff Girls, shows the refined patterned finish on the leather uppers, and they incorporate classic Nike SB Dunk features such as a perforated toe and Zoom Air inserts for added comfort. The icy pink outsole perfectly mirrors the signature color of the shoe, while orange highlights pay homage to Blossom's distinctive waist-length hair.
Mark your calendars! The Powerpuff Girls x Nike SB Dunk Low collection is set to drop on December 14 at select skate shops, followed by a SNKRS release on December 15.
