Product Information
Full details
The Nike Dunk High 'Knicks' is designed for adult men who appreciate a blend of heritage basketball aesthetics and modern casual style. This iconic high-top silhouette offers excellent ankle support and a durable leather construction, making it an ideal choice for everyday wear. While the bold blue and orange colorway provides a striking visual statement, potential buyers should note that the high-top profile requires a slightly more deliberate lacing process compared to low-top sneakers.

FAQs
Is this shoe suitable for athletic performance?
While based on basketball heritage, this is a lifestyle sneaker and not intended for high-intensity sports or professional basketball.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
This model is a standard UK 11.5. We recommend measuring your feet in the afternoon when they are at their largest for the most accurate fit.
Can I wash these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives. Always use manual cleaning methods.
Are the laces interchangeable?
Yes, you can swap the standard laces for different lengths or colors to customize the look.
Does the blue and orange color fade?
Direct sunlight and excessive moisture can cause colors to fade over time; proper storage is key to preserving the vibrancy.
Troubleshooting
Creasing at the toe box
This is natural for leather shoes; using shoe trees when not in use helps maintain the shoe's shape and minimizes deep creases.
Stiff ankle collar
Gently massage the leather around the collar and ensure the laces are not pulled excessively tight during the initial break-in period.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Dunk High trainers maintain their appearance, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe away surface dirt with a soft, dry brush. For more stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap, avoiding harsh chemicals.
- Leather Care: Apply a leather-specific conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the blue and orange dyes.
- Lacing: Adjust the laces to your desired tension before heading out; the top eyelets provide maximum stability when fully laced.
- Fit: This model is a UK size 11.5; if you prefer a looser fit, ensure your socks match the intended thickness for your daily activities.
