FAQs

What is the inspiration behind the Nike SB Dunk High Pro QS Banshee?

The shoe is inspired by the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam 02 Banshee from the long-running Gundam sci-fi franchise, created as part of a collection for the 2021 Tokyo Games.

What materials are used in the construction of this shoe?

The shoe features a black leather upper with navy leather overlays and copper trim. The sole is made of rubber.

Is this shoe suitable for professional skateboarding?

While it is a Nike SB model with skateboarding heritage, its unique design and premium materials make it more suited for casual wear and collection purposes rather than intense skateboarding.

When was this shoe originally released?

The Nike Dunk SB High Gundam Black Thunder Blue (referring to this model) was initially introduced on October 9th, 2021.

How should I clean the leather parts of the shoe?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the leather. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools.

What does 'Pro QS' stand for in the product name?

'Pro' typically indicates features enhanced for skateboarding performance, while 'QS' stands for 'Quickstrike,' denoting a limited release.

Where can I find information on other colorways or versions?

This model is part of a larger collection. Other variants, like the white Project Unicorn version, are available under different product codes (e.g., DH7717-100).

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noises during wear

This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try flexing the sole or inserting a talcum powder or dryer sheet under the insole to absorb moisture and reduce friction.

Leather creasing excessively

Creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use. Avoid over-tightening laces.

Slight color transfer

Some color transfer may occur with darker leathers, especially when new or exposed to moisture. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored clothing or surfaces until the shoes are broken in.
