FAQs

Are these trainers waterproof?

The Harris Tweed wool is naturally water-resistant to a degree, but the trainers are not fully waterproof. For significant water exposure, consider applying a water-repellent spray specifically designed for wool and suede.

How do I clean the Harris Tweed wool?

Gently brush away loose dirt with a soft brush. For stains, use a cleaner specifically formulated for wool, and always test on a small area first. Avoid machine washing or heavy soaking.

What is the origin of the Harris Tweed material?

Harris Tweed is a wool textile handwoven by islanders in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland, using a tradition dating back generations. It is protected by the Harris Tweed Act of Parliament.

What do the different colorways represent?

The colorways are inspired by various palettes, ranging from earthy tones to bolder patterns, allowing for diverse personal style expressions. Each colorway highlights the unique texture and character of the Harris Tweed wool.

Are these suitable for running or sports?

These trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While durable, they are not optimized for high-impact athletic activities like running.

What is the benefit of the suede overlays?

The suede overlays complement the wool uppers, adding visual contrast, texture, and reinforcing key areas of the shoe for added durability and style.

How do I store my Nike Dunk Low Harris Tweed trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape, and keeping them in a dust bag or their original box is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Wool material feels stiff or rough

This is characteristic of authentic Harris Tweed wool. With wear, the material will naturally soften. Avoid excessive cleaning which can degrade the texture.

Suede areas appear scuffed

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush in one direction to lift the nap and remove scuffs. For persistent marks, use a suede eraser.

Colors fade or bleed

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. If colors bleed during cleaning, use cold water and mild, color-safe cleaners, and ensure thorough rinsing and air drying away from heat.

Laces fraying

Replace frayed laces with new ones of a similar material and length. Consider waxed cotton laces for enhanced durability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: As a footwear product, the Nike Dunk Low Harris Tweed requires no setup. They are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult use and are compatible with standard sock wear. They are suitable for most casual and semi-formal settings.

Care: To maintain the quality of the Harris Tweed wool and suede, it is recommended to:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft brush to gently remove surface dirt from the wool and suede. For stains, use a specialized cleaner for wool and suede, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  • Protection: Consider applying a suede protector spray to help repel water and stains. Reapply periodically.
  • Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, ideally in a shoe bag or the original box to prevent dust accumulation and maintain shape. Avoid stacking them directly on top of each other for extended periods.
