Few honorary sneakers are able to perfectly encapsulate the energy and vibes emulating from their inspired home country. The Swoosh, though, has never been one to turn down a challenge, employing the Brazilian Flag’s discernable color scheme onto the Nike Dunk Low in 2001. Returning for the first time amidst the silhouette’s raucous widespread revival in 2020, the synonymous green and yellow treated leathers evoke memories of the greatest Brazilian footballers to grace the pitch. From Pelé to Ronaldinho and now the Neymar-led squad in the 2022 Word Cup, the South American country’s heritage and greatness seeps from the stitching.

Inspired by the Netherland-based brand’s authentic connection to its community, the “Noise Aqua” installment of the Patta x Air Max 1 collection infused the country with pride, extending communal roots onto the Capital City’s signature sneaker. Through a wavy faded blue mudguard, branded tongue tabs and an affixed charm bracelet, the gloomy aesthetic set upon the pair has since formulated one of the most popular propositions in the storefront’s AM 1 collaboration. A surefire cop for all Dutch sneakerheads.
