The classic black-and-white Panda Dunk colorway remains one of Nike's most sought-after silhouettes. However, the widespread circulation of generic replica versions ("通货") in the market has significantly increased buyers' risk of receiving subpar products.
The Replica Epidemic
Market analysis shows that over 65% of "Panda Dunk" listings on secondary platforms are either budget replicas or misrepresented versions. The most common issues include:
- Stiff artificial leather construction
- Incorrect last shapes (particularly wider toe boxes)
- Poor stitch density and alignment
- Inaccurate sole coloration
