Product Information

Full details

The Nike Dunk Low Retro White Pure Platinum is designed for adults seeking a stylish and versatile low-top sneaker. Its key benefit is offering a timeless aesthetic with durable leather construction and reliable traction, perfect for casual wear and streetwear. A potential caveat is that 'Pure Platinum' refers to a grey accent, not the primary color. This shoe features an all-leather build, a low-cut padded collar for comfort, perforated toe box for breathability, and a rubber cupsole for enhanced grip.

FAQs

What is the 'Pure Platinum' color?

'Pure Platinum' refers to a specific shade of light grey used for accent elements like the Swoosh logos, outsole, and branded heel tabs on this particular white colorway.

Are these shoes comfortable for all-day wear?

Yes, the low-cut padded collar and interior foam wedge are designed to provide comfort for extended periods of casual wear and walking.

How do I determine my correct size?

It is recommended to check Nike's official sizing chart for the most accurate measurement. Trying them on in-store or referencing reviews for fit feedback can also be helpful.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, these shoes are not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage and maintain their appearance.

What is the retail price of these shoes?

The retail price upon launch was $110 USD. Prices may vary depending on the retailer and current market conditions.

What is the main difference between the Dunk Low and Dunk High?

The primary difference is the collar height: the Dunk Low has a low-cut collar around the ankle, while the Dunk High features a higher, more padded collar that extends further up the ankle.

How should I clean the rubber sole?

The rubber sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher scuffs, a soft brush or a magic eraser can be used carefully.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise

Squeaking can occur from friction between parts. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or around the tongue.

Leather creasing excessively

Creasing is natural for leather. To minimize deep creases, consider using shoe trees when not in use. Avoid over-tightening laces.

Discoloration on white leather

Clean immediately with a damp cloth and mild soap if possible. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner for white leather. Protectants can help prevent future staining.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: The Nike Dunk Low Retro is a versatile footwear option designed for casual wear, streetwear, and everyday use. It pairs well with a wide range of clothing, including jeans, shorts, track pants, and casual dresses.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a clean, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For stubborn stains, use a mild leather cleaner. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  • Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper or paper towels to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers.
  • Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or their original box, to protect them from dust and maintain their shape. Rotate your footwear to allow them to rest and air out between wears.
