FAQs
Are these true to size?
The Nike Dunk Low generally fits true to size for most adults, though those with wider feet may prefer a half-size up.
Can I use these for playing basketball?
While based on a 1985 basketball silhouette, modern performance standards suggest these are better suited for lifestyle and fashion use.
How do I clean the white leather panels?
Use a soft cloth dampened with water and mild soap. Avoid soaking the leather.
What is the UK size for this specific pair?
This variant is specifically a UK size 5.
Does the leather stretch over time?
Leather will soften and conform slightly to your foot shape after being broken in, but it will not stretch significantly.
Troubleshooting
Creasing at the toe box
Use a sneaker crease protector or shoe tree when not wearing the shoes to maintain the leather structure.
Scuff marks on the white leather
Gently use a white eraser or a specialized leather cleaner to lift surface marks without damaging the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Dunk Lows remain in top condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather surface with a soft, damp cloth after each use. For tougher stains on the leather, use a mild leather cleaner.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the white leather from yellowing.
- Protection: Apply a water and stain repellent spray specifically formulated for leather to add a layer of protection against unexpected spills.
- Lacing: Ensure the laces are not pulled excessively tight to prevent strain on the eyelets and maintain the shoe's shape.
