FAQs

What materials are the Nike Dunk High AMBUSH 'Flash Lime' made from?

The primary material is high-quality leather for the upper, with rubber soles for durability and traction.

How do I clean the neon green parts without fading them?

Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For stains, use a specialized leather cleaner sparingly on the affected area and test on an inconspicuous spot first. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water.

Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?

While inspired by basketball heritage, these are primarily fashion sneakers. They offer good support and durability for walking but are not designed for high-impact athletic training.

What does 'AMBUSH' refer to in the product name?

AMBUSH is a Japanese fashion brand that collaborated with Nike to create this unique iteration of the Dunk High silhouette, known for its distinctive design elements.

What is the original retail price of these sneakers?

The Nike Dunk High AMBUSH 'Flash Lime' originally retailed for $180 USD upon its release in July 2021.

Do these sneakers run true to size?

Generally, Nike Dunk Highs are considered to fit true to size. However, due to the re-imagined proportions and high-top collar, some users may prefer to try them on or consult sizing charts if unsure.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The leather construction offers some protection, but it is not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to maintain the material's condition and longevity.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise during walking.

This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder inside the shoe, particularly around the insole, or check if the laces are too tight.

Color transfer from neon green to lighter socks.

This is more common with new, brightly colored dyes. Wear darker socks initially or perform a spot test with a damp cloth on an inconspicuous area to check for colorfastness. Allow the shoes to air out thoroughly before extended wear.

Creasing on the leather.

Creasing is natural for leather footwear with wear. To minimize excessive creasing, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use to help maintain the shoe's shape.

Difficulty lacing up due to high-top collar.

Loosen the laces considerably before putting the shoe on, then re-tighten them gradually to achieve the desired fit. The collar may also become more flexible with wear.

Compatibility:

This is a men's adult-sized sneaker and is compatible with standard US/UK sizing conventions. It is designed for foot comfort and style.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For tougher stains on the leather, a dedicated leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  • Suede/Nubuck (if applicable): Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and maintain texture.
  • Laces: Remove laces and wash separately by hand or in a garment bag in the washing machine.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the leather and adhesives.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box, to protect from dust and maintain shape. Consider using shoe trees to preserve the silhouette.
