Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the longevity of your SB Dunks, begin by ensuring the laces are tensioned comfortably across the midfoot to secure the lockdown provided by the padded tongue. If you intend to use these for skating, consider applying a suede-safe water and stain repellent before your first session.
Cleaning should be performed carefully: use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dust and dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can alter the texture of the overlays and weaken the adhesives. If spot cleaning is necessary, use a mild soap solution and a damp cloth, dabbing the area gently rather than scrubbing aggressively. Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the purple and lagoon pulse tones from fading over time.
