FAQs

What is the primary material used in the Nike x Off-White Air Rubber Dunk 'University Blue'?

The upper is composed of a blend of rubber, synthetic leathers, and mesh, offering a mix of durability and breathability.

Is this shoe suitable for athletic performance like running or basketball?

While it features Air cushioning for comfort, the design is primarily for lifestyle and fashion. It's not recommended for high-impact athletic performance due to its collectible nature and specific construction.

How should I clean the deconstructed tongue edges?

Clean gently with a soft, dry brush. Avoid excessive moisture, as it can increase fraying. Minor fraying is part of the design aesthetic.

What does the 'University Blue' colorway signify?

The 'University Blue' references a popular color often associated with collegiate sports and a classic Nike aesthetic, applied here in a unique combination with silver overlays and a white base.

What is the significance of the rubber enclosures around the Air Bubble?

These rubber enclosures are a distinctive design element by Virgil Abloh, integrating the visible Air cushioning unit into the shoe's overall aesthetic while providing a unique textural contrast.

Where can I find information about other colorways or sizes?

Product descriptions and available listings for different colorways and sizes can usually be found through official Nike channels or authorized retailers specializing in collectible sneakers.

What is the warranty on these trainers?

As these are often considered collectible items released in limited editions, standard warranties may not apply or may have specific terms. It is best to check with the retailer at the time of purchase for any warranty information.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from midsole

This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers. Allow the shoes to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area. If the issue persists, a small amount of baby powder under the insole might help absorb moisture.

Dirt or scuffs on rubber/mesh upper

Use a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap to gently clean affected areas. For stubborn marks on rubber, a magic eraser can be used carefully. Rinse with a clean damp cloth and air dry.

Discoloration of gum sole

Gum soles can naturally oxidize over time. To restore brightness, a specialized sole cleaner or a melamine foam sponge can be used gently. Ensure to test on an inconspicuous area first.

Raw edges on tongue fraying excessively

The deconstructed nature of the tongue edges is intentional. Minor fraying is normal. If fraying becomes excessive, consider applying a very small amount of fabric fray check to the edges, being careful not to alter the appearance.
