FAQs

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

The shoe is a collaboration inspired by the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam 02 Banshee, a mobile suit from the Mobile Suit Gundam franchise.

What materials are used in the construction of this shoe?

The shoe features a primary black leather upper with navy leather overlays and distinctive copper trim, along with metallic gold and thunder blue accents.

Is this shoe suitable for actual skateboarding?

While built on the Nike SB Dunk platform which has skateboarding roots, this is a premium, limited-edition collaboration. It can be used for casual skateboarding, but many owners prefer to keep it as a collectible due to its unique design and value.

How should I clean and care for the leather on these sneakers?

The primary colors are black and navy leather, accented with copper trim, metallic gold, and thunder blue hues.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather

Some creasing is natural with leather footwear. To minimize it, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid bending the shoe excessively during wear.

Color transfer

The dark leather dyes may transfer onto socks or lighter clothing, especially when new or wet. Wear dark socks initially and allow the shoes to dry thoroughly.

Sole separation

If minor sole separation occurs, a strong adhesive designed for footwear can be used for repair. For significant damage, professional repair or replacement may be necessary.

Laces fraying

Replace frayed laces with new ones of a similar style and length. Ensure they are tied securely but not excessively tight to avoid undue stress.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the leather upper. For stubborn dirt, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the shoes in water.
  • Drying: If shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, as this can damage the leather.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
  • Protection: Consider using a leather protectant spray to help guard against water and stains, especially on the suede or nubuck components if present.
