FAQs
How do I ensure I order the correct size?
Measure your foot length from the heel to the tip of your longest toe. Compare this measurement to the 'Foot Length' column in the provided EU size chart. If your measurement falls between two sizes, it is recommended to choose the larger size. Be aware that the CM size on the shoebox does not directly equate to foot length in centimeters.
What material are the Nike Dunk High Retro shoes made of?
The Nike Dunk High Retro features a premium leather upper with stitched overlays for durability and a classic aesthetic.
Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?
While the Dunk originated as a basketball shoe, the Retro version is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. They offer comfort and a classic look but may not provide the specialized performance features of modern basketball sneakers.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For more stubborn marks, a dedicated mild leather cleaner and a soft brush can be used. Always allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat.
What does 'Retro' mean in the product name?
'Retro' indicates that this is a reissue or re-release of a classic model, maintaining its original design elements and characteristics from its initial debut.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
The leather upper offers some resistance to light moisture, but these shoes are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended, and they should be dried properly if they get wet.
What is the main benefit of the high-top design?
The high-top design provides increased ankle support and a distinctive, retro athletic style compared to low-top sneakers.
Troubleshooting
Inconsistent Sizing
Refer to the detailed EU size to foot length chart provided in the product description. Measure your foot accurately from heel to toe. If between sizes, opt for the larger size. Note that CM sizing on packaging may differ from actual foot length.
Stiff Leather
New leather can be stiff. Wear the shoes around the house for short periods to break them in gradually. Using a leather conditioner can also help soften the material over time.
Traction Issues
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. For worn-out treads, consider professional sole replacement if possible, or replacement of the shoes.
Discomfort After Extended Wear
Ensure the correct size has been chosen. If the shoe is the correct size, consider adding aftermarket insoles for additional cushioning or arch support. Check lacing tightness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These are ready to wear straight out of the box. No assembly or setup is required.
Compatibility: Designed for adult males, these shoes are compatible with casual wear. When considering size, it is crucial to measure your foot length. Use the provided EU size to foot length chart. Remember that the CM size on the shoebox may not directly correlate to foot length in centimeters.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a clean, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild leather cleaner and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper to absorb moisture and air dry them away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box, to maintain their shape and condition.
- Lacing: Ensure laces are tied appropriately for a comfortable fit but avoid over-tightening, which can stress the eyelets and upper.
