You have to be colder than cold to be a quarterback in the NFL. Then you have to be several times chillier to walk through a Buffalo winter in just a cap, hoodie, and sweatpants. Before today's NFC Playoff Game against the Kansas City Chiefs, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen played it cool with his pregame outfit.

Allen strolled through the players' parking lot at Highmark Stadium in mismatched sweats and a pair of Nike Dunk Low sneakers - a true man of the people. Check out the Yahoo Sports social media post below for a great look at Allen's low-key tunnel 'fit.

While Allen always opts for comfort over style with his sartorial style, the All-Pro quarterback always makes sure to incorporate a trendy pair of sneakers to complete the ensemble.

Today was not the first time we have seen Allen rock Nike Dunks before a game, but it is definitely one of the stronger colorways in his rotation. Allen wore the Nike Dunk Low in the 'Chicago Split' colorway. Below is a detailed look at the sneakers, pricing, and affordable alternatives.

The Nike Dunk Low 'Chicago Split' was released in July 2023 for $110. Online shoppers can purchase this exact pair at resale value in most sizes on the sneaker platforms StockX, GOAT, and KICKS CREW. However, there are plenty of other colorways available at retail prices on the Nike website.

The 'Chicago Split' colorway is an obvious homage to the litany of Chicago Bulls-inspired colorways in the Nike catalog. The leather upper features a white base with University Red overlays. The Swoosh logos contain a split design that cuts from black to white. 

Even the Nike branding on the tongues and heels incorporates the theme of the past and future. Lastly, a vintage aesthetic is created with the off-white finish on the midsole. 

Buffalo is a blue-collared town, so it is perfectly fitting that their quarterback wears sweatpants and sneakers before kickoff. Stay locked into FanNationKicks.com for all your footwear news from the sports world.
