FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The Nike Dunk High Up generally fits true to size for most wearers, though some prefer a half-size up if they have wider feet.
Can I use these for playing basketball?
While these feature basketball-inspired design elements, they are categorized as lifestyle trainers and are not recommended for competitive athletic performance.
How do I maintain the leather material?
Keep the leather clean with a damp cloth and apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple.
Is the ankle strap removable?
The strap is part of the shoe's aesthetic design; it is recommended to keep it attached to maintain the intended silhouette.
What makes the 'Up' version different?
The 'Up' version is a specific iteration of the Dunk series characterized by an elevated or platform midsole and subtle updates to the upper design.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the leather toe box
Creasing is a natural characteristic of high-quality leather. Using a shoe tree when not in use can help maintain the shape.
Difficulty adjusting the ankle strap
Ensure no debris is trapped in the velcro or hardware and smooth the strap flat to re-engage the fastening mechanism.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Dunk High Ups remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure you lace the shoes to your preferred tension before adjusting the ankle strap.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away surface dust. For the leather upper, use a specialized leather cleaner applied to a soft cloth, avoiding harsh chemicals.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or discolouring.
- Weather: While the leather is durable, avoid wearing these during heavy rain or in muddy conditions to preserve the material finish.
