The Nike Dunk is one of the most hyped silhouettes right now. It all started with the sport of basketball - as well as everything else. In 1985, the iconic silhouette was introduced and even then it had its peak with college basketball.
Today we're helping you with a sizing guide on the Nike Dunk . Because how annoying would it be if the kicks end up being too big or too small, or if they pinch the side or squeeze the toes? Know your size - welcome to the Nike Dunk Sizing Guide!
How to determine your own shoe size
First of all, it is important to determine your own shoe size. When you order sneakers online, it is not as easy as when you walk into a shoe shop and can try on the shoe on the spot.
Here is what you need to measure your own shoe size:
- 2 sheets of A4 paper
- A pencil
- A ruler
How to calculate the dimensions of your foot:
Take a sheet of paper and the pencil, choose a wall you can stand upright against, and put your heel all the way up against it. It is best to put on the socks you will also wear in your new shoes. Secure the sheet of paper to the floor with tape or your weight and stand on it with your heel against the wall. It is best to ask someone to draw around your foot with the pencil. Once you have a nice outline, grab a ruler and measure the distance from the heel to the tip of your big toe. Record this result in centimetres.
Repeat this process on your other foot too. It may sound duplicate, but for many people, the sizes differ from one foot to another. Then take the largest foot as a reference to determine your shoe size using the appropriate table. Remember that information from different manufacturers may differ and therefore you should always follow their size charts.
You can use each brand's size charts to find the perfect shoe size by comparing it to your measured size. But beware! Many styles differ in fit, even if the brand is the same. Manufacturers often write this in the description.

Nike Dunk Sizing Guide
This sizing guide includes the Nike Dunk Low, the Dunk High, as well as the Disrupt and the SB Dunk. Even if you know your own size, the kicks sometimes differ in their fit. Also note that there are extra models and cuts for women.
Nike Dunk Low Retro Sizing
The Nike Dunk Low Retro is true to size. If you have wide feet, the Dunk fits well because the toebox is cut a little wider.
Fit: true to size
Nike WMNS Dunk Low Retro Sizing
Here too, the Dunk Low Retro in WMNS sizing is true to size. The usual size you have in your other shoes should also fit you in the Nike Dunk.
Fit: true to size
Dunk Low LX WMNS Sizing
The Dunk Low LX WMNS models are also sized accordingly. So if you normally wear a size 39, you should also choose a size 39.
Fit: true to size
Nike Dunk Low Next Nature Sizing
The Next Nature Dunk Lows are also true to size - whether for men or women.
Fit: true to size
Dunk High Retro Sizing
The Dunk High retro also has true sizing, so you can choose your normal size here too.
Fit: true to size
WMNS Dunk High Sizing
Exactly the same applies to the Nike WMNS Dunk High - it too is true to size.
Fit: true to size
Dunk Low Disrupt Sizing
The Dunk Low Disrupt silhouettes are also true to size.
Fit: true to size
Dunk Low Disrupt WMNS Sizing
The Nike Dunk Low WMNS Disrupt also comes in the same size as your usual shoe.
Fit: true to size
Nike SB Dunk High Sizing
Don't expect the Nike SB Dunk to have the same fit as the Dunk. The sneaker has been specially adapted for skating and is therefore tighter. This is because Nike has built thicker padding into the tongue, forefoot and heel of the sneaker.
So if you have wide feet, choose half a size larger.
Fit: true to size or half size more
Nike SB Dunk Low Sizing
The SB Dunk Low also does not have the same fit as the Nike Dunk. It's better to choose half a size larger if you have particularly wide feet.
Fit: true to size or half size more
