FAQs

What makes these Dunks special?

These are special due to their collaboration with the Gundam franchise, celebrating its 15th anniversary, and their direct inspiration from the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam mobile suit, featuring unique design elements like the Unicorn insignia and interchangeable Swoosh.

Are these shoes suitable for actual skateboarding?

Yes, as they are part of the Nike SB line, they feature enhanced cushioning and support suitable for skateboarding. However, many owners choose to keep them as collector's items due to their special nature.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Clean the leather with a soft brush or cloth. For tougher marks, use a dedicated leather cleaner applied with a damp cloth, and follow up with a leather conditioner to keep the material supple.

What does 'RX-0 Unicorn Gundam' refer to?

RX-0 Unicorn Gundam is the specific mobile suit model that inspires the design of this particular Nike SB Dunk High. It's a central character in the Gundam anime series.

How do I change the Swoosh?

The Swoosh is designed to be interchangeable. Gently pull or slide the existing Swoosh off the attachment points and then align and press the new Swoosh into place. Be careful not to force it.

What is the main color of this shoe?

The main color of this specific model is white, reflecting the color scheme of the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam.

Where can I find other colorways or related models?

Other related models and colorways within the 'Project Unicorn' collection or other Gundam collaborations can often be found through sneaker marketplaces or specialized retailers that carry limited edition releases.

Troubleshooting

Swoosh attachment is loose or difficult to attach

Ensure the attachment points on the shoe and Swoosh are clean and free of debris. Align the Swoosh carefully and apply firm, even pressure. If it persists, contact customer support or the retailer.

Leather creasing or scuffing

Minor creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, avoid over-flexing the shoe and consider using shoe trees when not in use. For scuffs, use a leather cleaner and conditioner.

Color transfer from socks or other materials

This can occur with new dyed materials. It's advisable to wear dark socks initially, especially with lighter colored shoes. Use a protective spray designed for leather and textiles.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Unique design appealing to Gundam fans and sneaker collectors.
  • High-quality leather construction for durability and aesthetic appeal.
  • Customizable with interchangeable Swoosh for varied looks.
  • Collectible item due to its special collaboration and anniversary release.
  • Comfortable SB Dunk High silhouette suitable for casual wear.

Cons

  • Specialized release may have limited availability.
  • Leather requires proper care to maintain condition.
  • Higher resale value can make them less accessible.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These sneakers require no electronic setup. They are ready to wear upon unboxing. The primary 'setup' involves choosing which Swoosh color to attach, if desired.

Compatibility:

  • Sizing: Available in various adult US men's sizes. It's recommended to try them on if possible, as SB Dunks can sometimes run slightly narrow.
  • Styling: Pairs well with streetwear, casual attire, and outfits inspired by anime or Japanese pop culture.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove surface dust. For stains on the leather, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for footwear, applied with a clean cloth. Avoid excessive moisture.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading or material degradation. Use shoe trees to help maintain shape.
  • Swoosh Care: When changing the Swoosh, do so gently to avoid tearing the leather panels or the Swoosh attachment points.
