FAQs

What materials are the Nike Dunk Low 'Smoke Grey Black' made from?

The shoes feature a combination of genuine leather and durable synthetic overlays for the upper, with a rubber outsole.

Are these shoes true to size?

Nike Dunk Lows generally fit true to size for most individuals. However, fit can vary slightly based on individual foot shape. We recommend trying your usual UK shoe size.

Can I use these shoes for playing basketball?

While the Nike Dunk Low has roots in basketball, this modern iteration is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual sneaker. For serious athletic performance, dedicated modern basketball shoes are recommended.

How do I keep my Nike Dunk Lows clean?

Regular cleaning with a soft brush and a damp cloth with mild soap is recommended for the upper. Avoid harsh chemicals and always air dry. For leather components, specialized leather cleaners can be used.

What is the primary benefit of the perforated toe area?

The perforated insert on the toe area is designed to enhance airflow and breathability, helping to keep your feet comfortable.

Are the synthetic overlays just for looks, or do they serve a purpose?

The durable synthetic overlays are both a stylistic nod to the 1980s basketball aesthetic and a functional component, providing structural support and increasing the shoe's overall durability.

How durable is the outsole?

The rubber tread, inspired by classic basketball designs and featuring pivot points, is built for durability and reliable traction during everyday casual wear.

What should I do if my shoes get wet?

If your shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape, then allow them to air dry at room temperature away from direct heat or sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel uncomfortable or too tight/loose.

Ensure you have the correct size. If new, allow for a break-in period as the materials may soften and conform to your foot. Adjust lacing for a custom fit.

Squeaking sound when walking.

This can sometimes be caused by the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing and reinserting the insole, or applying a small amount of baby powder underneath. Moisture can also cause squeaks; ensure shoes are fully dry.

Scuffs or minor marks appear on the leather/synthetic.

For light scuffs, a soft, damp cloth can often gently rub them out. For deeper marks, specialized leather cleaners or sneaker protectors might be needed (test on an inconspicuous area first).

Soles feel slippery or lack grip.

Ensure the rubber tread is clean and free of dirt, mud, or debris that might be reducing traction. Clean the outsole thoroughly with a stiff brush and water.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Timeless and iconic design suitable for various casual styles.
  • Durable construction with synthetic overlays for long-lasting wear.
  • Good traction provided by the rubber tread and basketball pivot points.
  • Enhanced breathability through the perforated toe insert.
  • Secure and adjustable fit with the traditional lacing system.

Cons

  • Leather material may require specific cleaning and care to maintain its appearance.
  • While durable, the 80s-inspired design might offer less advanced cushioning than modern athletic shoes.
  • Not primarily designed for intense, specialized athletic performance despite its basketball heritage.
  • May feel slightly stiff initially due to the durable leather and synthetic construction, requiring a break-in period.

Setup: Simply unlace, insert your foot, and tighten the laces for a comfortable, secure fit. No complex setup is required. Compatibility: These sneakers are highly versatile and complement a wide range of casual outfits, from jeans and shorts to tracksuits and streetwear. Their classic silhouette and neutral grey color palette make them easy to integrate into most wardrobes. Care: 1. Cleaning: For general dirt, use a soft brush to remove loose debris. For more stubborn marks on the leather and synthetic overlays, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals. 2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the materials. 3. Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather and synthetic footwear to prolong their pristine condition. 4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
