FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, most users find the Nike Dunk High fits true to size. If you prefer a roomier feel, you may want to go up half a size.
Can I play basketball in these?
While based on a 1980s basketball design, these are currently marketed as lifestyle trainers. They are not recommended for competitive court use.
How do I keep the white base clean?
Regularly wipe the white sections with a damp cloth after use and treat scuffs immediately with a specialized leather cleaner.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The Dunk silhouette is generally standard width. If you have particularly wide feet, you may find them slightly snug at first.
What is the inspiration behind this colorway?
This colorway draws inspiration from the 1985 'Be True To Your School' collection, reflecting classic college basketball team colors.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels too stiff after purchase
Wear them indoors for short periods with thick socks to help the material stretch and conform to your foot.
White leather base showing scuffs
Gently clean with a sneaker-specific cleaning solution and a soft cloth; avoid harsh chemicals that might strip the leather finish.
Creasing on the toe box
Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather footwear; using cedar shoe trees when not in use can help minimize deep set-in creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Dunk Highs remain in top condition, follow these simple guidelines:
- Break-in: Wear the shoes for short intervals initially to allow the leather to soften and mold to your foot shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or fading.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the leather surfaces. For tougher stains on the midsole, a specialized sneaker cleaner and a soft-bristled brush are recommended.
- Protection: Consider applying a water-repellent leather protectant spray if you plan to wear them in unpredictable weather.
- Lacing: Adjust the laces to your preferred tension, but ensure they aren't tied too tight, which can cause premature creasing of the leather toe box.
