Product Information

Full details

The Nike SB Dunk Low Gardenia is designed for skaters and sneaker enthusiasts who appreciate unique design elements and cultural significance. Its key benefit lies in its distinctive aesthetic, blending soft white leather with vibrant blue suede and subtle lime green accents, inspired by the Gardenia flower. A potential caveat for skaters is the delicate nature of the suede overlays, which may show wear quickly during intense skating sessions.

Troubleshooting

Suede appearing matted or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consider a specialized suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

White leather components showing scuffs

Wipe gently with a damp cloth. For deeper scuffs, a mild leather cleaner or a magic eraser can be used with caution, being careful not to damage surrounding materials.

Laces are dirty

Remove the laces and hand wash them with mild soap and water, then air dry. Alternatively, they can be machine washed in a garment bag on a gentle cycle.

Shoe odor

Remove insoles and air them out separately. Use a shoe deodorizer spray or place baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.
