FAQs
Does the Nike Dunk High run true to size?
Yes, the Nike Dunk High typically fits true to size. If you have wider feet, you may find the initial fit snug, but the leather will stretch slightly over time.
Can I use these for basketball?
While these are based on 1980s basketball designs, they lack the modern performance cushioning found in contemporary basketball shoes and are intended primarily for lifestyle use.
How do I protect the leather?
You can apply a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray to help protect against elements, but ensure you test it on a small, inconspicuous area first.
Are the laces interchangeable?
Yes, you can swap out the factory laces for any standard sneaker laces if you prefer a different color or style.
What is the best way to store these sneakers?
Store them in a cool, dry area. Using a shoe tree or stuffing them with acid-free paper helps the shoes retain their original shape.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels stiff upon first wear
This is normal for high-quality leather. Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot shape.
Creasing appearing on the toe box
Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather footwear. Using a shoe tree when not being worn can help maintain the shape and minimize deep-set creases.
Dirt stains on the white leather
Gently clean the affected area using a specialized leather cleaner or a mixture of mild dish soap and water on a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive sponges.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Iconic, timeless design that pairs well with most styles
- High-top construction offers superior ankle support
- Durable leather material ages well with proper care
- Faithful recreation of 1985 basketball heritage
Cons
- Leather requires time to break in for maximum comfort
- Lighter white sections can show dirt more easily
- High-top style may feel restrictive to some users compared to low-tops
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Dunk Highs remain in peak condition, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or fading. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust, and wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the structural integrity and adhesive bonding. For compatibility, this model fits true to size for most users, though those with wider feet may prefer to loosen the laces significantly during the initial wearing sessions.
