FAQs

What is the inspiration behind the Nike SB Dunk Low Albino & Preto?

The design is inspired by a collaboration between skate culture and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, with the heavy gauge canvas upper mimicking Jiu-Jitsu kimonos.

What does the black Swoosh represent?

The black Swoosh symbolizes the duality inherent in the 'Albino & Preto' name.

Are these shoes good for actual skateboarding?

Yes, as Nike SB Dunks, they are designed with skateboarding in mind, offering durability, board feel, and cushioning.

How should I clean the canvas upper?

Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth for general cleaning. For stains, a mild soap solution can be used gently. Avoid machine washing.

What is the pearl weave construction?

It's a traditional weave pattern found in Jiu-Jitsu gis, incorporated into the sneaker's design for added detail and texture.

Is this a limited edition release?

Yes, this is a collaborative release, which often means limited availability.

Troubleshooting

Canvas material feels stiff initially

This is normal due to the heavy gauge canvas. Wear them for short periods to break them in gradually. They will soften with use.

Color transfer from black Swoosh

In rare cases, especially when wet, the black Swoosh might transfer color. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture and allow them to dry completely if they get wet.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

Ensure the soles are clean. Some surfaces inherently offer less grip. For skateboarding, ensure the board's grip tape is in good condition.

Compatibility: These sneakers are designed for adult male wearers. While built with skateboarding in mind, they are compatible with a wide range of casual attire.

Care: To maintain the condition of the canvas and pearl weave construction:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. Avoid harsh scrubbing to prevent damage to the canvas.
  2. Stain Removal: For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a cloth, working gently on the affected area. Always test on an inconspicuous spot first.
  3. Drying: Air dry the sneakers away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
