FAQs
Are these sneakers suitable for athletic sports?
While based on basketball heritage, these are lifestyle trainers and are best suited for casual wear rather than professional athletic performance.
Does the Nike Dunk High fit true to size?
Most users find the Dunk High fits true to size, though those with wider feet may prefer a half-size increase for better comfort.
Can I wear these in the rain?
The leather and canvas construction is not waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain to prevent water staining on the light sail-colored panels.
How do I remove dirt from the Monarch canvas overlays?
Gently clean the canvas with a soft brush and a light mixture of water and gentle detergent, being careful not to let the leather get overly wet.
Is the material breathable?
The leather and canvas materials offer moderate breathability, suitable for all-day casual wear in temperate conditions.
Troubleshooting
Visible scuffs on the leather panels
Use a specialized leather eraser or a damp cloth with mild soap to gently buff the area.
Creasing at the toe box
Use plastic or foam shoe trees when not in use to help maintain the structural shape and minimize deep creases.
Laces becoming untied frequently
Ensure they are double-knotted or try a different lacing technique to increase friction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the most out of your Nike Dunks requires proper initial sizing and ongoing care. Since these are leather and canvas shoes, it is recommended to treat them with a water and stain repellent spray before the first wear to protect the sail-colored leather. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust from the canvas overlays. For deep cleaning, apply a mild leather-safe cleaner to the leather panels and wipe away with a microfiber cloth; avoid machine washing or soaking the shoes to prevent material degradation. Always store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the vibrancy of the Monarch orange hue.
