Full details

FAQs
Are these sneakers suitable for playing basketball?
While the Dunk originated as a basketball shoe, this specific model is intended for lifestyle and casual use.
How do I maintain the corduroy parts?
Keep them dry and brush lightly with a soft brush to remove dust and prevent fabric matting.
What does the 'Official Nike Basketball Merchandise' patch signify?
It is a decorative homage to vintage sportswear caps and gear from the era that inspired the design.
Does the sizing run large or small?
The Nike Dunk High generally fits true to size. If you usually wear a UK 12 in Nike sneakers, this size should be consistent.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is recommended to avoid heavy rain, as water can damage the corduroy and stain the leather overlays.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty cleaning corduroy panels
Use a specialized soft suede or fabric brush to lift dirt; do not use harsh scrubbers that could fray the fabric.
Creasing in the leather toe box
Use a shoe tree when not wearing to help the material retain its shape and minimize deep creases.
Laces coming untied frequently
Ensure they are laced through all eyelets and consider a double-knot for a more secure, locked-in feel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Dunk Highs remain in top condition, follow these guidelines. For sizing, these fit true to standard Nike sizing; ensure your UK 12 measurement corresponds to your usual athletic shoe preference. When cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dust from the corduroy panels to avoid pilling. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this may affect the integrity of the leather and the texture of the corduroy. If the leather overlays get dirty, use a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe them clean. Always store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the navy and green fabrics from fading over time.
