FAQs
What is the inspiration behind the 'Escargot' nickname?
The nickname 'Escargot' comes from the shoe's design, which is inspired by the French delicacy escargot. The colorway of pear and sesame is meant to represent the garlic butter and parsley used in its preparation.

The shoe is constructed with a combination of soft suede and smooth leather overlays for both durability and a premium aesthetic.
How do I clean the suede and leather parts of the shoe?
Use a dedicated suede brush for the suede and a damp cloth for the leather. Specialized cleaners for each material are recommended for tougher stains. Always test cleaners in an inconspicuous area first.
What does the imagery on the insole represent?
The insole features imagery of a white plate, celebrating Paris's culinary history and tying into the 'Escargot' theme.
When was the Nike SB Dunk Low 'Escargot' released?
The Nike SB Dunk Low 'Escargot' was released on October 1, 2024.
What are the metallic accents on the shoe?
Metallic-silver accents are featured on the Swoosh logos and the leather heel tab, adding a subtle premium detail.
Troubleshooting
Suede becoming matted or dirty
Gently brush the suede with a suede brush in one direction to restore its nap. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully.
Leather showing creases or scuffs
Minor creases are natural with wear. For scuffs, try a leather cleaner or a leather conditioner. For deeper scratches, colored shoe polish matching the shoe's color may help.
Padding feeling too tight initially
The thick padding is designed for comfort and support. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape.
Discoloration from water exposure
Avoid wearing in heavy rain. If exposed to water, allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Consider using a water-repellent spray designed for leather and suede, testing first.
