FAQs
What is the exact sizing for these sneakers?
These Nike Dunk Low Premium sneakers are available in UK size 8.5. Please consult Nike's official size chart for conversions if you are more familiar with US, EU, or other regional sizing.
Are these sneakers waterproof?
While premium leather offers some natural resistance to light moisture, these sneakers are not fully waterproof. For enhanced water resistance in wet conditions, we recommend applying a suitable leather protector spray.
How can I prevent creases in the leather?
Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather wear. To minimize it, ensure the shoes fit correctly, avoid overly tight lacing, and use shoe trees or stuff them with paper when storing them.
Can I use any shoe polish on these?
For premium leather, it's best to use a high-quality leather cream or polish specifically designed for black leather. This will nourish and protect the material, rather than just covering it, helping to maintain its original quality.
What material are these shoes made from?
These Nike Dunk Low Premium sneakers are crafted from high-quality premium leather.
Are these suitable for athletic activities?
The Nike Dunk Low Premium is designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear, emphasizing style and comfort for everyday use. While they are sneakers, they are not specifically engineered for high-performance sports activities.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking sound when walking
This is often caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing and reinserting the insole, or applying a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch underneath it to reduce friction.
Leather scuffs or scratches appear
For minor scuffs, gently buff the affected area with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, a specialized black leather repair cream or shoe polish in a matching color can help conceal them. Always test any product on an inconspicuous area first.
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
New leather shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially, allowing the leather to soften and mold to your feet. Wearing thicker socks during this period can also help prevent discomfort.
Difficulty keeping the shoes clean
Regular maintenance is key. Wipe them down after each wear with a damp cloth. For more stubborn dirt, use a soft brush with a leather cleaner. Consider applying a leather protector spray to repel water and stains.

Their timeless design makes them suitable for various occasions, from casual outings to less formal social events. They are designed for adult wearers, specifically male sizing.
Care
To maintain the premium leather, regularly wipe them with a damp, soft cloth to remove surface dirt and dust. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner specifically formulated for black leather, followed by a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, abrasive brushes, or machine washing, as these can damage the leather. Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and consider using shoe trees or stuffing them with paper to help maintain their shape when not in use.
