Troubleshooting
Laces frequently come untied during wear.
Ensure the laces are tied securely with a double knot. You can also explore different lacing techniques, such as a surgeon's knot, for enhanced security.
A 'squeaking' sound is heard when walking.
This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's sole, or trapped moisture. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder or baking soda inside the shoe, and then replacing the insole. Ensure shoes are completely dry.
Foot discomfort or rubbing during initial wears.
New leather footwear can require a brief break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially. Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks. If discomfort persists, verify that the size is correct or consider consulting a foot specialist.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Your Nike Dunk Low trainers come with a traditional lacing system. To ensure optimal comfort and support, unlace them fully before putting them on. Adjust the laces evenly from the toe to the ankle, ensuring a snug but not overly tight fit. Double-knotting the laces can help them stay secure during activity.
Compatibility:
These trainers are designed for adult men and are primarily intended for basketball enthusiasts, offering performance features for court use. Their timeless style also makes them highly compatible with a wide range of casual and streetwear outfits for everyday wear.
Care:
Given that the trainers are made from leather with synthetic overlays, proper care is essential to maintain their appearance and durability.
- Cleaning: For general dirt and dust, gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains on the leather, use a specialized leather cleaner designed for athletic footwear. Follow the cleaner's instructions carefully. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the leather.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and prevent creasing.
