NL is the build Undefeated used as the base for one of the more unusual colour pairings the model has carried: Blue Reef, a bright sea blue, against Cotton Candy, a pale pink, with black grounding both. Blue and pink was not a combination Nike was putting on basketball shoes in 2005. Part of the point of handing the Dunk to outside shops in that era was that they would choose colours the brand would not, and this pair is a clear example of it.
At 170 dollars it sat far above a general release Dunk High of the time. It reached shops on 9 May 2005, one of a run of Dunk projects Nike handed to outside shops in that period, each of which came back with colours and materials the brand was not choosing for itself.
