FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?
No, the Nike Dunk High is designed primarily for casual wear and lifestyle purposes. They are not intended for high-impact athletic activities.
How do I clean the 'Fossil Rose' colorway?
Use a soft brush or damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher spots, a small amount of mild soap with water can be used, followed by air drying away from heat.
What material are these shoes made of?
These Nike Dunk Highs are crafted from premium leather.
How does the sizing run for Nike Dunk Highs?
The sizing generally runs true to size for most wearers. However, it's always recommended to check Nike's official size guide and consider personal fit preferences.
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
While leather offers some protection, these shoes are not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain to prevent damage and maintain their condition.
What is the difference between Dunk High and Dunk Low?
The primary difference is the ankle height: Dunk Highs have a higher cut around the ankle, offering more support and a different aesthetic, while Dunk Lows have a lower profile.
How should I store my Nike Dunk Highs when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them with thin socks initially. Use a shoe tree or stretchers if the tightness persists. They may also loosen up with continued wear.
Leather scuffs or creases
Minor scuffs can sometimes be buffed out with a soft cloth. Creases are a natural part of worn leather; embrace them as part of the shoe's character or use conditioning products to maintain leather health.
Slight color transfer
This can sometimes occur with new leather, especially darker colors rubbing against lighter socks or surfaces. Ensure socks are colorfast and consider using a leather protector spray.
