FAQs
What does 'CO.JP' stand for?
CO.JP stands for 'Collection of Japan', indicating that the original release of this colorway was exclusive to the Japanese market.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Nike Dunks generally fit true to size for most people. However, slight variations can occur. It's recommended to try them on if possible or refer to Nike's official sizing chart and compare with your most comfortable pair of sneakers.
Is the suede waterproof?
No, the suede material is not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing these shoes in wet conditions and to protect them from excessive moisture.
Can I wear these for playing basketball?
While the Dunk was originally a basketball shoe, this retro lifestyle version is best suited for casual wear. It is not recommended for intense athletic performance like modern basketball shoes.
How often should I clean my suede Dunks?
Clean your suede Dunks as needed, especially after wearing them in dusty or dirty environments. Regular brushing can help maintain their appearance between deeper cleans.
What is the difference between this retro and the original 2001 release?
This retro aims to replicate the original 2001 'Veneer' colorway as closely as possible in terms of materials and design. Minor variations in production or materials might exist, as is common with retro releases.
Troubleshooting
Suede losing its texture or color.
Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush to restore nap. Avoid exposing the shoes to excessive moisture or direct sunlight.
Laces fraying or breaking.
Replace laces with a new pair. Consider using a protective wash bag if machine washing.
Sole becoming dirty or scuffed.
Clean the sole with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. For scuffs, a magic eraser can sometimes be effective, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
