In 2003, Nike launched the White Dunk Evolution of an Icon event, in which 25 Japanese artists were tasked to reimagine the white Nike Dunk as abstract works. The traveling exhibition gave way to the commemorative Nike Dunk "City Series" which would feature highlights from major cities across the globe, starting with the Nike SB Dunk Low "Paris" and followed by Nike SB Dunk Low Pro "Tokyo." Also included, the "London" and "Pigeon" SB Dunks, respectively.London was set to be the third city to host the exhibition, but due to an unexpected cancellation, Nike instead released the 202 pairs at the famed Footpatrol.
