FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the Nike Dunk Low typically fits true to size for most adults.

Can I use these for basketball?

While originally designed as basketball shoes in 1985, modern iterations are intended for casual, lifestyle wear rather than high-performance sports.

What is the best way to clean the red overlays?

Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust and a damp cloth for deeper stains, being careful not to transfer red dye onto the white base.

Is the leather upper waterproof?

The leather is water-resistant, but not waterproof. It is recommended to avoid heavy rain to prevent water staining.

Do I need to break these in?

Like most leather shoes, they may feel slightly stiff initially but will naturally soften and contour to your foot after a few wears.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the leather toe box

Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather; using shoe trees when stored can help minimize deep set-in wrinkles.

Scuffs on the white leather

Use a specialized leather eraser or a damp microfiber cloth with a small amount of gentle leather cleaner to buff out surface scuffs.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality leather construction
  • Iconic university-inspired color scheme
  • Durable build suitable for daily use

Cons

  • White leather can be prone to showing dirt and scuffs
  • Limited ventilation compared to mesh-based trainers
  • Requires maintenance to keep the crisp white finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Nike Dunk Lows last as long as possible, proper care is essential. Since the upper is made of leather, avoid machine washing or soaking the shoes. Instead, spot clean any dirt using a soft cloth, mild soap, and water. For white sections, consider using a specialized leather cleaner to prevent yellowing or dullness. Always let your shoes air dry away from direct heat sources, which can cause the leather to crack. When not in use, store them in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees to help maintain their original shape.
