FAQs

What makes the "hairy" suede different from regular suede?

The "hairy" or "fluffy" suede has a longer, more pronounced nap, giving it a softer, almost fur-like texture. This requires more careful cleaning to avoid damaging the fibers.

Are these shoes good for actual skateboarding?

Yes, as Nike SB Dunks, they are designed with skateboarding in mind, featuring a durable cupsole and cushioning for impact protection. However, the "hairy" suede might be more susceptible to abrasion during intense skate sessions compared to more robust materials.

How do I clean the Noise Aqua Swoosh?

The Noise Aqua Swoosh is also made of suede. Use the same methods as cleaning the main suede upper: a suede brush for maintenance and specialized suede cleaners for stains, applied gently.

What does "Emerald Rise" refer to in the colorway?

Emerald Rise is a specific shade of green used in the sneaker's color palette, contributing to its vibrant and eye-catching aesthetic alongside the orange tones.

What is the primary benefit of the Zoom Air unit?

The Zoom Air unit, located in the heel, provides responsive cushioning and absorbs impact, making the shoes more comfortable for extended wear and mitigating shock during activities like walking or skateboarding.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in wet weather as they can easily get stained and damaged. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally and use appropriate suede care products afterward.

What is the significance of the "Orange Label" for Nike SB?

The "Orange Label" typically signifies products from Nike SB's Orange Label line, often released through select skate shops. While this specific model is the 'Orange Emerald Rise', the "Orange Label" itself denotes a connection to skate shop culture and often features slightly different materials or colorways.

Troubleshooting

Suede texture becoming matted or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift and restore the nap of the suede. For stubborn dirt, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully.

Color bleeding on socks or other shoes

Ensure the shoes are completely dry before wear. If the issue persists, the dye may not be fully set, and it is advisable to wear darker socks and avoid contact with lighter-colored items until the bleeding stops.

Reduced cushioning over time

The Zoom Air unit provides long-term cushioning. If you feel a significant reduction, it may indicate extensive wear. For prolonged comfort, consider rotating your footwear.

Squeaking noise during walking

This can sometimes occur due to the tongue rubbing against the upper or slight moisture. Try adjusting the lacing or placing a dry paper towel inside the shoe overnight to absorb any potential moisture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These sneakers are ready to wear straight out of the box. No assembly or setup is required.

Compatibility: The Nike SB Dunk Low is a versatile lifestyle sneaker compatible with a wide range of casual outfits. It is designed for adult use.

Care: Due to the "hairy" suede material, specialized care is recommended:

  1. Brushing: Regularly use a suede brush to maintain the texture and remove surface dust. Brush in one direction.
  2. Cleaning: For minor scuffs, use a dry suede eraser. For more significant stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and a damp cloth, being careful not to oversaturate the material. Allow to air dry completely away from direct heat.
  3. Protection: Consider using a suede protectant spray to guard against water and stains, applying it periodically as per the product's instructions.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or their original box, to prevent dust accumulation and maintain shape.
