FAQs

What makes the 'Sail' version sustainable?

The 'Sail' version is part of Nike's 'Move to Zero' initiative and is constructed using at least 50% recycled materials by weight, including recycled polyester synthetic leather and Flyleather.

Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?

These trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and lifestyle use. While they offer comfort and support for walking, they are not intended for high-impact sports or specialized athletic training.

How do I determine the right size?

Refer to Nike's official sizing guide for accurate measurements. It's recommended to try them on if possible, as fit can vary slightly between models.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the materials offer some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may lead to discomfort and can affect the materials. It's best to avoid wearing them in wet conditions.

What is the difference between these and traditional leather Dunks?

The primary difference lies in the materials used. The Next Nature 'Sail' utilizes recycled synthetic leather and Flyleather, whereas traditional Dunks often use virgin leather. This impacts the environmental footprint and may slightly alter the feel and long-term wear characteristics.

How should I store these shoes?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat. Using a shoe tree or stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape when not in use.

Troubleshooting

Uneven stitching or minor imperfections

This can occasionally occur with footwear made from recycled materials. Inspect the shoe; if it significantly affects appearance or function, contact customer support.

Creasing on the toe box

Creasing is a natural process for leather and synthetic leather footwear with use. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use.

Slight color variations

Due to the nature of recycled materials, minor variations in color tone between different pairs or even on the same shoe can occur. This is normal and part of the unique character.

  • Environmentally conscious design using recycled materials.
  • Iconic and versatile Dunk silhouette.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear shoes; no setup is required. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult women. They pair well with a wide range of casual attire.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Nike Dunk Low Next Nature 'Sail' trainers:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the leather and synthetic materials with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the material.
  2. Laces: Remove laces and clean them separately by hand or in a garment bag in the washing machine. Allow them to air dry completely.
  3. Soles: Use a brush or damp cloth to clean the rubber soles. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly.
  4. Drying: Always air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box, to protect them from dust and damage.
