FAQs
What material is the Nike Dunk Low Syracuse Pale Ivory made from?
The upper is primarily constructed from premium leather, offering durability and a classic look. The sole is made of rubber.
Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?
These Dunk Lows are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer comfort for daily activities, they are not engineered for high-performance sports like basketball or running.
How do I clean the ivory parts of the shoe?
Use a damp cloth or a soft brush with mild soap to gently clean the ivory leather. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For stubborn marks, a specialized sneaker cleaner can be used, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Will the orange color fade over time?
Like most dyed materials, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading. Storing them away from sunlight and avoiding excessive sun exposure during wear will help maintain the vibrancy of the orange color.
What kind of socks should I wear with these?
Any comfortable socks can be worn. For the initial wears, consider darker colored socks to prevent any potential color transfer from the orange accents onto lighter socks.
Is this shoe true to size?
Nike Dunks generally fit true to size for most wearers. However, individual fit can vary. It is recommended to check Nike's official sizing chart and consider your foot width when selecting your size.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the leather upper
Natural creasing is normal with wear. To minimize appearance, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid excessive bending of the foot.
Slight color transfer from orange accents
This can occur initially, especially when wet. Ensure socks are dark-colored during initial wears. If transfer occurs, clean gently with a leather cleaner suitable for colored leather.
Sole feels stiff
The rubber sole will soften with wear. Engage in regular walking to break them in. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks for comfort.
