The 'Passport Pack' theme commemorates Union LA's global influence and the travels of its founder, Chris Gibbs, particularly his experiences in Japan during the early 2000s, drawing inspiration from rare Dunk finds.
You can carefully tear away the ripstop nylon layer to expose the blue leather underneath. This can be done gradually or by wearing the shoes to create natural wear patterns. Some users employ damp cloths to soften the material for easier tearing.
Yes, once the ripstop layer is torn away, it cannot be restored to its original condition. The process is intended to be a personalized, one-time customization.
The sneaker features a base of smooth leather in various shades of blue, covered by a semi-translucent tearaway ripstop nylon upper. It also includes red stitching details and branding elements.
These are lifestyle sneakers designed for casual wear and comfort. While they offer good traction and cushioning for everyday activities, they are not engineered for rigorous athletic training or sports.
'Argon' refers to the specific colorway inspiration, drawing from the 2001 Nike Dunk Low CO.JP 'Argon' release.
The unfinished stitching is a deliberate design choice. Avoid snagging or pulling on these threads. Minor unraveling is normal, but excessive fraying may require professional attention or a small amount of fabric glue if it impacts the shoe's structure.
Tear the material slowly and deliberately, or wear the shoes to naturally create wear patterns. For a more controlled reveal, use a damp cloth to soften the material in specific areas before attempting to tear.
The unfinished stitching is a design element. If a small amount unravels, it's normal. For significant unraveling that compromises the shoe's integrity, consult a professional sneaker restorer or consider adhesive options for reinforcement, though this may affect the aesthetic.
Clean gently with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner suitable for blue leather. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
Dunks generally fit true to size but can feel snug initially, especially with the layered upper. Consider the thickness of socks you typically wear. If the fit is consistently uncomfortable, seek advice from where the shoes were purchased regarding exchanges if possible.
Setup: These are ready-to-wear sneakers. No specific setup is required beyond ensuring they fit correctly.
Compatibility: Designed for adult wear. While compatible with various casual outfits, the unique design elements make them a focal point. They pair well with jeans, shorts, and casual trousers.
