FAQs

What is the inspiration behind the Nike SB Dunk Low 'Albino & Preto'?

The sneaker is inspired by the fusion of skate culture and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, drawing design elements from Jiu-Jitsu kimonos, specifically the heavy gauge canvas upper and pearl weave construction.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is constructed from a heavy gauge canvas, inspired by the material used in Jiu-Jitsu kimonos.

How should I clean these sneakers?

It's best to spot clean the canvas upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or soaking the shoes. Always air dry.

Are these suitable for professional skateboarding?

While they are part of the Nike SB line, the specialized materials like heavy canvas lend themselves more to lifestyle wear and casual skating rather than high-impact professional skateboarding.

What does the black swoosh represent?

The black swoosh is designed to symbolize the duality inherent in the 'Albino & Preto' collaboration name.

When was this collaboration released?

This collaboration was released on September 23, 2023.

What are the main colors of this specific variant?

This particular variant features 'Fossil/Black/Sail' color accents.

Troubleshooting

Canvas appears dirty or stained.

Gently spot clean with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. For stubborn stains, use a soft brush and work carefully to avoid damaging the fabric. Always rinse with a clean damp cloth and air dry.

Shoe feels stiff initially.

This is common with new canvas shoes. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in. Walking around indoors can help the material conform to your foot.

Color transfer from black accents.

While unlikely with proper manufacturing, if color transfer is observed, ensure the shoes are completely dry before wearing with light-colored socks. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
