FAQs

What makes the Nike Blazer Low sacai x KAWS 'Purple Dusk' special?

This sneaker is a result of a special collaboration between Nike, sacai, and the artist KAWS. It features a unique design with layered elements, KAWS' signature branding, and a distinctive purple colorway, making it a collectible item.

What is the primary material used in these sneakers?

The upper of the Nike Blazer Low sacai x KAWS 'Purple Dusk' is primarily constructed from smooth purple leather.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the leather. For tougher stains, a mild leather cleaner can be used. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.

Are these suitable for athletic performance?

These sneakers are designed for lifestyle and fashion wear. While comfortable for walking, they are not intended for high-impact athletic activities.

What does the 'XX' on the shoe signify?

The 'XX' is the signature mark of the artist KAWS and is debossed on the lateral toe and visible on the sockliner of these collaborative sneakers.

What is the outsole made of?

The outsole is made of traditional herringbone rubber, designed to offer grippy traction.

Where can I find information on other available sizes?

The product information lists several variant siblings with different UK shoe sizes. Please refer to the 'variant_siblings' section for available sizes.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try wearing them more frequently or applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole.

Uneven stitching or glue marks

As a result of the collaborative and deconstructed design, slight variations may be present. These are often characteristic of the aesthetic and not defects. If significant, contact customer support.

Color transfer from sockliner

Darker socks might transfer color to the KAWS 'XX' debossed sockliner. This is more common with new shoes. Ensure socks are colorfast or opt for lighter-colored socks initially.

Leather creasing

Creasing is natural with leather footwear. Proper fit and shoe trees can help minimize excessive creasing over time.

  2. Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box, to protect them from dust and direct sunlight.
  4. Protection: Consider using a leather protectant spray to guard against water and stains, especially on the purple leather.
