Off the basketball court and onto the streets, the Nike Dunk is a fashion icon

From basketball to subcultures like skateboarding and dance, the influence of the Nike Dunk is overwhelming. It was released in 1985 as a basketball shoe, but its flat, grippy outsole made it the perfect shoe for skateboarders, a marginalized sports community.

Bringing to the surface a subculture that craved creativity as much as function, the Dunk has seen countless colorways over the decades, capturing the hearts of basketball and skateboarders around the world.

In modern times, the shoe has become a fashion icon that exudes the vintage and retro vibe of the '80s and individuality by being worn with a variety of looks, from casual to athleisure, all while remaining comfortable.

FAQs

How do I choose my Nike Dunk size?

For the Nike Dunk, we recommend buying your regular size or a half size up, as it fits your foot perfectly. However, if you have a wider ball of your foot, you may want to go half to one size up for a more comfortable fit.

Please keep in mind that the sizing tips are average recommendations, not individualized, and we encourage you to consider your foot size and comfort preferences when purchasing.

If you have any issues with your shoes after purchasing them from Foot Locker, such as discomfort or pinching, you can contact customer service or request a free exchange/return within 28 days of delivery.

How do I style my Nike dunk?

The Nike Dunk is a comfortable shoe that can be worn with a variety of looks, including casual, athleisure, and nerdcore, and is a great way to express your individuality with a vintage and retro vibe. With its retro '80s feel and classic appeal, the Dunk pairs well with jeans, wide-legged pants, sweatpants, leggings, and more, especially when paired with jogger pants or a sweatshirt for a sporty, street-style look.

Does a Nike dunk make you taller?

The Nike Dunk has a heel height of approximately 2-2.5 cm, which creates a height effect. However, even within the same line, the heel height may vary between specific models and versions, so we recommend that you refer to the product details page before purchasing.

Are the products sold by Foot Locker authentic?

Foot Locker has direct agreements with each brand's headquarters to source authentic products. Aside from Nike Dunk, we guarantee the authenticity of all the brands we carry.

How should I wash my Nike Dunk?

Nike products may require different washing instructions for different categories and areas, so we recommend that you check the washing instructions and care instructions before washing your shoes.

As a general rule, we recommend that you keep your natural leather shoes in shape with a shoe rack or newspaper, and avoid leaving them in hot and humid places, such as fires or heating appliances, for long periods of time. If your shoes get wet, do not store them immediately, but wipe them dry with a dry cloth and dry them in a well-ventilated shade, away from fire.

To wash your shoes, we recommend that you check the product label to see if they are machine washable, and if so, wash them separately using a mild detergent and room temperature water (15-25 degrees), and avoid using bleach or bleaching agents.

For natural leather products, we recommend avoiding machine washing and cleaning the surface with a soft brush, damp cloth, or shoe cleaner. For artificial leather products, we recommend removing dirt with a soft brush, cleaning the surface with soapy water, and drying in a well-ventilated area. For suede (taxi, sprinter) products, we recommend avoiding laundry soap and washing in water, as it may cause water loss when in contact with water.

For detailed washing instructions for each product, we recommend referring to the product's tag or checking the official website for washing instructions and product handling precautions.
