How should I clean my leather Nike Dunks?

Gently wipe the leather with a damp cloth and use a specialized leather cleaner if necessary. Always allow them to air dry naturally and avoid harsh chemicals.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather upper

Minimize creasing by using shoe trees when not in use and avoiding excessive bending of the foot while wearing. Some creasing is natural with leather.

Color transfer from shoe to socks

This can occur with new, darker dyes. Wearing darker socks initially and washing them separately can help mitigate this. Allow shoes to air out before prolonged wear.

Slight discoloration on midsole

Minor imperfections can occur during the manufacturing process. Gentle cleaning with a damp cloth may help. If significant, contact customer support.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the leather upper. For stubborn marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  2. Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or dust bag to protect them from dust and prevent creasing. Consider using shoe trees to maintain their shape.
