  • Published

Timothée Chalamet’s promotional tour for the Wonka prequel film has captivated fashion enthusiasts with a myriad of bold sartorial choices, ranging from Matrix-style latex overcoats to daring shirtless suits. As anticipation builds for the film’s release, Chalamet surprises fans with a glimpse of his latest creation: ultra-rare Nike Dunk Lows inspired by the whimsical world of Wonka, designed by the actor himself.

Crafted at the Nike campus in Oregon, these Wonka Dunks reflect Chalamet’s enduring passion for sneakers and draw inspiration from his character’s wardrobe in the upcoming movie. The sneakers exude a playful charm, featuring a burgundy tongue and laces reminiscent of Wonka’s iconic jacket, adorned with pastel-colored smears reminiscent of hand-drawn pencil crayon art. A yellow cursive “W” on the tongue tag and an embroidered cloud and lightning bolt on the heel add delightful finishing touches to the design. Chalamet has already been spotted showcasing these exceptional sneakers with his casual ensembles, further enhancing their allure.

Limited to just five pairs, these Dunks pay homage to the Golden Tickets from “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.” Accessible only through a promotional contest tied to the Wonka film, owning a pair of these sneakers is akin to possessing the holy grail of sneaker culture—an everlasting gobstopper of footwear. Speculation about the resale value of these coveted collectibles runs rampant, attesting to their extraordinary appeal and exclusivity.
