FAQs
What material is the upper of the Nike Dunk Low Olive Aura made from?
The upper is constructed from high-pile suede, providing a premium look and feel.
Are these shoes suitable for athletic activities?
While the Nike Dunk has roots in basketball, this specific 'Olive Aura' model is designed for lifestyle and fashion wear, emphasizing style over athletic performance.
How do I best clean the suede on these sneakers?
Regularly brush with a dedicated suede brush. For stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner and allow to air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.
Does the sizing run true to size for the Nike Dunk Low?
Nike Dunks generally fit true to size. For the most accurate fit, it's recommended to consult Nike's official women's sizing chart.
Can I wear these sneakers in rainy weather?
Suede is not ideal for wet conditions. While a protective spray can help, it's best to avoid heavy rain to prevent water damage and staining to the material.
What makes the 'Olive Aura' colorway unique?
The 'Olive Aura' colorway features a distinctive two-tone green suede upper (Olive Aura and Oil Green) accented by a Bicoastal aqua Nike Swoosh and heel tab, offering a fresh take on the classic Dunk.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears matted or dull
Gently brush the affected area with a soft-bristled suede brush in a single direction to lift the nap and restore its texture. Regular brushing helps prevent matting.
Suede has water spots or light stains
Allow the shoes to dry completely. Use a suede eraser to gently rub away the marks. For persistent spots, use a specialized suede cleaner following the product's instructions, then brush.
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
The high-pile suede material may require a short 'break-in' period. Wear the shoes for short durations around the house to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot's shape.
Color seems to be fading
Ensure shoes are stored away from prolonged direct sunlight, which can bleach suede. Consider using a UV-protective spray designed for suede to help maintain color integrity.
Shoes develop an odor
Remove insoles and air them out. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Ensure socks are always worn to help prevent sweat buildup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
The Nike Dunk Low Olive Aura requires no complex setup. Simply unbox, lace them up to your preferred snugness, and they are ready to wear. Ensure a comfortable fit by adjusting the laces evenly across the foot.
Compatibility
These sneakers are highly compatible with a range of casual and smart-casual attire. Their distinctive green colorway makes them a versatile accessory:
- Apparel: Excellent with jeans (blue, black, white), chinos, cargo pants, shorts, skirts, and casual dresses.
- Colors: Blends well with neutral palettes (black, white, grey, beige), earthy tones (browns, tans), and can surprisingly complement some muted blues or even burgundy for a bolder contrast.
Care
Proper care is crucial for maintaining the premium high-pile suede of your Nike Dunk Low Olive Aura:
- Initial Protection: Before first wear, apply a high-quality suede and nubuck protector spray. This helps repel water and prevent stains.
- Regular Cleaning: Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove loose dirt and dust after each wear. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap.
- Spot Cleaning: For specific stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner. Apply the cleaner sparingly to a clean cloth, gently dab the stain, and then brush.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to prevent color fading and material degradation. Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry suede shoes. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners not specifically designed for suede.
