FAQs

Are Nike Dunk Low Next Nature sneakers true to size?

Generally, Nike Dunk Lows, including the Next Nature series, fit true to size for most individuals. However, fit can vary by foot shape. If you are between sizes, it's often recommended to try them on or consult a detailed Nike size chart.

Can I wear these shoes in the rain?

While the leather upper offers some natural resistance to light moisture, these sneakers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions should be avoided to protect the leather and interior components. A water-repellent spray can add a layer of protection.

What does 'Next Nature' mean for these sneakers?

The 'Next Nature' designation indicates that the product contains at least 20 percent recycled content by weight. This is part of Nike's commitment to sustainability and reducing environmental impact.

How often should I clean the white leather upper?

For optimal appearance, especially with white leather, it's recommended to wipe down the shoes after each wear if they've accumulated dirt. A more thorough cleaning with a leather cleaner can be done every few weeks or as needed, depending on usage and exposure to dirt.

Do these sneakers offer good arch support?

The Nike Dunk Low Next Nature features a foam midsole that provides responsive cushioning and basic comfort. For individuals requiring significant arch support, adding custom or over-the-counter insoles might be beneficial.

Will the leather upper crack or crease over time?

All leather will develop some creases with wear, which is a natural characteristic of the material. High-quality leather like that used in the Dunk Low Next Nature is durable, and with proper care, conditioning, and avoiding extreme drying conditions, significant cracking can be minimized. Regular cleaning and moisturizing can help maintain the leather's suppleness.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

Leather shoes often require a 'break-in' period. Wear them for short durations initially. The premium leather will gradually soften and conform to the shape of your foot, improving comfort over time.

White leather shows dirt and scuffs very easily.

This is common with white footwear. Regularly wipe down the shoes with a damp cloth after each wear. For persistent marks, use a cleaner specifically designed for white leather sneakers. Applying a stain-repellent spray can also help minimize new marks.

A squeaking sound comes from the shoes when walking.

Squeaking is often caused by friction, typically between the insole and the inside of the shoe. Try removing the insole, cleaning the area, and then reinserting it. If the issue persists, sprinkle a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch underneath the insole to reduce friction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Timeless and Versatile Style: Easily complements a wide range of outfits, from casual to slightly more dressed up.
  • Comfortable Cushioning: The foam midsole and padded collar provide a comfortable wearing experience for daily activities.
  • Durable Construction: Built with quality materials including a robust leather upper and rubber outsole for lasting wear.
  • Sustainable Choice: Incorporates recycled content, appealing to environmentally conscious consumers.
  • Ages Gracefully: The leather upper is designed to develop a unique character and softness over time.

Cons

  • Requires Regular Care: The white leather material needs consistent cleaning and maintenance to retain its pristine appearance.
  • Visibility of Dirt: The white colorway is prone to showing dirt, scuffs, and marks more readily.
  • Limited Water Resistance: While leather offers some protection, the shoes are not waterproof and prolonged exposure to wet conditions should be avoided to preserve material integrity.

Care Instructions

Proper care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of your leather sneakers.

  1. Initial Protection: Before the first wear, consider applying a high-quality leather protector spray. This can help repel water and prevent stains.
  2. Regular Cleaning: After each wear, especially for white leather, gently wipe down the upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt and dust.
  3. Deep Cleaning (Leather): For more stubborn marks or accumulated dirt, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft brush or cloth. Follow the product instructions carefully.
  4. Cleaning the Sole: Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and a mild soap solution to clean the rubber outsole and midsole. Wipe clean with a damp cloth.
  5. Drying: Always allow your sneakers to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (e.g., radiators, hairdryers). Stuffing them with crumpled paper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
  6. Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their original shape and prevent creasing.
  7. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use harsh detergents, bleach, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the leather and other materials.
  8. Toe Box Perforations: Periodically use a soft, dry brush or a toothpick to gently clear any debris from the perforations on the toe box to maintain breathability.
