FAQs

What is the main material used in these trainers?

The trainers are constructed from a mix of smooth and tumbled leather.

What does 'GLEICHGEWICHT' mean?

'Gleichgewicht' is German for 'balance'.

Are these suitable for playing basketball?

While inspired by basketball heritage, these are best suited for lifestyle and casual wear rather than competitive play due to modern performance standards.

How should I clean the leather parts?

Use a soft, damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals.

What is the significance of the 'CHAOS' and 'GLEICHGEWICHT' prints?

These prints symbolize the Undercover brand's motif of embracing opposing states or dualities.

When were these trainers released?

These trainers were released in March 2022.

Can I wear these with athletic socks?

Yes, they can be worn with athletic socks for comfort, though dressier socks might complement the sophisticated design for certain occasions.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather

Natural leather will crease with wear. To minimize visual impact, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid overly tight lacing.

Laces becoming worn

Replace worn laces with new ones of similar length and material. You can purchase replacement laces from most shoe retailers.

Discoloration of white accents

Gently clean white leather or rubber parts with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap or a specialized sneaker cleaner. Avoid vigorous scrubbing.

Squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur due to friction within the shoe. Try adding a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or along the tongue's edge.

Pros and Cons

  • Classic and iconic design with a retro appeal.
  • High-quality leather materials offer durability and a premium feel.
  • Unique 'Chaos/Gleichgewicht' heel detailing adds a distinct, artistic touch.
  • Versatile monochromatic black colorway that pairs easily with many outfits.
  • Comfortable for extended wear due to the padded collar and tongue.

Cons

  • The specific collaboration details may not appeal to those seeking a purely classic Dunk.
  • Leather material may require specific care to maintain its appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Care:

  • Drying: If wet, allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
