Nike Dunk Low Setsubun

The Nike Dunk Low Setsubun draws inspiration from the Japanese Setsubun festival, a celebration marking the arrival of spring and the tradition of warding off evil spirits by throwing roasted soybeans. This pair presents a harmonious palette of earth tones—shades of brown, beige, and sandy hues—highlighted by a striking purple Swoosh and subtle graphic accents on the heel and insoles. The sneaker features premium leather and nubuck overlays, together with intricate embroidery details and artwork inspired by Japanese folklore, particularly the hero Kintarō by artist Utagawa Kuniyoshi.

Designed for both comfort and visual storytelling, the gum rubber outsole and blue lace option add extra layers of distinction and versatility. Each detail, from the unique cracked leather finish to the festival-themed insole art, connects cultural legacy and craftsmanship. This limited edition release captures the essence of renewal and heritage in Japanese culture, making it a standout artifact for collectors and streetwear aficionados.

To ensure the longevity of your sneakers, we recommend a considered approach to their care. Regular maintenance is key to preserving their aesthetic integrity and material quality.

• General Care: For leather and synthetic uppers, gently wipe away dirt with a soft, damp cloth and a mild cleaning solution. Laces can be hand-washed separately. Allow the sneakers to air-dry naturally, away from direct heat or sunlight, to maintain the structure and quality of the materials.

• Suede & Nubuck: These delicate materials require specific attention. Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt, always brushing in the same direction. For stubborn marks, a specialist suede eraser is recommended. Avoid water, as it can stain and alter the texture. To protect against the elements, a light application of a waterproofing spray designed for suede can be beneficial.
