FAQs

What does the "Passport Pack" theme represent?

The "Passport Pack" theme is inspired by the Union crew's love for travel and adventure, incorporating design elements reminiscent of travel documents and international documentation.

How do I best reveal the hidden colors under the tearaway layer?

The tearaway layer is designed to wear down naturally with use. Consistent wear in various conditions will gradually reveal the underlying green and navy hues. Avoid aggressive tearing unless you want an immediate change.

What material is the shoe primarily made of?

The shoe features a combination of durable ripstop textile on the upper, with a leather underlay that becomes visible as the tearaway layer wears down. The sole is semi-translucent.

Is the unfinished stitching a sign of poor quality?

No, the unfinished contrast stitching is an intentional design feature of the Nike Dunk Low Union Passport Pack "Pistachio" to enhance its unique aesthetic. It is not a defect.

What is the retail price of these sneakers?

The Nike Dunk Low Union Passport Pack Pistachio originally retailed for $150 USD upon its release in February 2022.

Are there other colorways in the "Passport Pack"?

Yes, the "Passport Pack" collaboration between Nike and Union LA included other colorways inspired by different travel destinations and themes.

How should I store these sneakers to maintain their condition?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help preserve their shape, and keeping them in their original box can offer protection.

Troubleshooting

Tearaway layer is peeling unevenly or too quickly.

This is a natural part of the design's evolution. If it bothers you, consider it part of the shoe's unique wear pattern. Avoid picking at loose edges. For early significant peeling, contact customer support if within a warranty period, though wear-and-tear is generally not covered.

Stitching appears loose or unfinished.

The "unfinished contrast stitching" is an intentional design element of this specific collaboration. It is not a defect. If you suspect actual damage to the stitching, consult the retailer or Nike customer service.

Color transfer from the leather underlay to socks.

Initial wear, especially in damp conditions, may cause slight color transfer. This is more common with darker dyes. Wearing darker socks can help minimize the visual impact. Allow the shoes to air out thoroughly after wear.

Scuffs or marks on the semi-translucent sole.

Use a damp cloth or a specialized sneaker sole cleaner to gently remove marks. Avoid excessive scrubbing which could cloud the finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These are ready-to-wear shoes. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort.

Compatibility:

Designed for adult males, these sneakers are suitable for most casual and streetwear outfits.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the ripstop textile and leather. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the materials and the tearaway layer.
  • Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning. Hand wash with mild soap and water, then air dry.
  • Sole: Clean the semi-translucent sole with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a specialized sneaker cleaner can be used sparingly.
  • Tearaway Layer: Avoid intentionally tearing the layer unless desired. If the layer begins to peel prematurely due to wear, embrace the evolving look. Do not try to reattach torn sections.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve color and material integrity. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
