FAQs

What does 'Next Nature' mean for these sneakers?

The 'Next Nature' designation indicates that the product is made with at least 20% recycled content by weight, showcasing Nike's commitment to sustainability.

Are these sneakers suitable for playing sports?

While inspired by basketball shoes, the Nike Dunk Low Next Nature is primarily a lifestyle sneaker designed for casual wear and fashion. It is not recommended for high-performance athletic activities.

How do I best clean the white leather?

For routine cleaning, wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized sneaker leather cleaner and a soft brush. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Do Nike Dunk Lows run true to size?

Generally, Nike Dunk Lows are considered true to size for most wearers. If you are between sizes, or prefer a looser fit, you might consider going up half a size.

Will the leather crease easily?

Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather footwear, especially in areas of frequent flexing like the toe box. Regular wear will cause some creasing. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape when not worn.

How durable is the rubber outsole?

The rubber outsole is designed for durable traction in urban environments and provides good wear resistance for everyday use. Its classic construction is built to last with proper care.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears creased or wrinkled quickly.

This is a natural characteristic of leather. To minimize, use shoe trees when not wearing them, avoid excessive bending, and ensure they are laced properly to prevent over-flexing.

Squeaking sound when walking.

Often due to the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, and then reinserting the insole. This can reduce friction.

Stains on the leather upper.

For fresh stains, gently dab with a clean, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner appropriate for sneakers, following its instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Loss of original shape.

When not in use, insert shoe trees or stuff the toe box with acid-free tissue paper. This helps absorb moisture and maintain the shoe's original silhouette.

Care

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your leather sneakers:

  1. Cleaning the Leather: Gently wipe down the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth after each use to remove dust and light dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner following the product's instructions.
  2. Protecting the Leather: Consider applying a leather protector spray designed for sneakers to help repel water and stains.
  3. Drying: If wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight, which can dry out and crack the leather.
  4. Maintaining Shape: Use shoe trees or stuff the sneakers with paper when not in use to help retain their original shape and minimize creasing.
  5. Sole Cleaning: Use a soft brush and mild soap to clean the rubber outsole.
  6. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and light.
