For years the Nike Sports Culture category had defined Nike's initiative to adapt their legacy of performance styles into more casual non performance based applications. The Nike Sport's Culture category has, officially as of today, gone through a rebranding and will now be known as the Nike Sports Wear category, or, NSW.
 
As part of the new NSW and as part of the NSW's push during the Beijing Olympics, Nike unveiled the Nike Olympics Dunk High pack. The "Olympics" Nike Dunk High Pack features Dunk Highs that take inspiration from the Olympics Rings and the Olympics festitivties. Several of the NSW "Olympic" Dunk Highs feature an all solid colored Patent upper inspired by the Olympic Rings and one of the NSW "Olympic" Dunks features an overlayed polka dot print on a Black/Red seamless Dunk High.
 
As of now a release date for the NSW "Olympic" Dunk High pack has not been confirmed.
