One of New York City’s artistic legends, Leonard McGurr a.k.a. Futura’s creative vision continues to evolve and influence—across medium, genre, and instinct. With his iconic hand style at the center, his work eschews labels or context, despite being known as one of grafitti’s most-famous progenitors. From subway car fame of decades past, to prestigious gallery and museum exhibitions of the now, Futura’s pieces boldly reinterpret space through color, characters, and typography.
The Futura Laboratories Nike SB Dunk Low Pro is a collaboration between Futura’s commercial product brand and design studio Futura Laboratories and Nike’s storied Skateboarding division. Initiated by a generous collaboration invitation from Mark Parker—this product’s design marks a return to Swoosh's heritage of artist collaboration footwear, bringing graphic applications from Futura’s paintings to the Dunk’s silhouette. Using a bleached canvas as the backdrop, the Futura Laboratories Dunk features detailed and colorful overlays, puff-print details, custom tongue labels, insole art, and a translucent sole revealing Futura’s iconic signature. Finished with contrast stitching and two-toned coordinated pastel laces, the Futura Laboratories Dunk marks the return to the original Dunk SB Low side-toe construction, calling back to his long-standing relationship with Nike SB.
