FAQs
What does 'Orange Label' signify?
Nike's Orange Label designation indicates products that are typically released through select skate shops, often featuring premium materials and designs tailored specifically for skateboarding.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Nike SB Dunk High Pro ISO Orange Label Unbleached Natural are not waterproof. While the leather offers some resistance, they are not designed for use in wet conditions and should be kept dry.
How do I break in these sneakers?
Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing the duration. Gentle flexing and skating in them will help the materials mold to your foot shape.
What is the main difference between this and a regular Dunk High?
The 'SB' designation means it's built for skateboarding with features like enhanced cushioning, improved grip, and more durable materials. The 'ISO' and 'Orange Label' further emphasize their specific skate-focused release and premium build.
Can I use these for running or other sports?
These sneakers are designed specifically for skateboarding. While they offer comfort, they lack the specific support and cushioning required for activities like running.
How durable is the corduroy fabric?
The corduroy fabric, combined with leather, offers good durability for skateboarding. However, like all footwear, it can show wear over time with consistent, heavy use.
Troubleshooting
Laces fraying quickly
Consider replacing with sturdier, skate-specific laces. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly, which can cause unnecessary stress.
Reduced grip on the board
Ensure the gum rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. Dirt and dust can significantly impact traction.
Leather creasing excessively
This is normal for leather shoes, especially during the break-in period. Proper lacing and using shoe trees when not in use can help minimize severe creasing.
Discomfort or pressure points
Allow for a break-in period of several skating sessions. Ensure the shoe fits correctly; if discomfort persists, consider alternative lacing techniques or consult a professional.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
These sneakers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.
Compatibility:
Designed primarily for skateboarding, these shoes are compatible with most skateboards. They are suitable for adult users.
Care:
- Cleaning Leather: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the leather areas. For tougher stains, a mild leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the leather.
- Cleaning Suede/Corduroy: Use a specialized suede brush or a dry cloth to gently remove dirt. For stubborn marks, a suede eraser can be effective.
- Laces: Remove laces for cleaning separately. Hand wash with mild soap and water.
- Soles: Wipe the rubber soles clean with a damp cloth. Ensure they are dry before wearing.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain material integrity. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain shape.
