FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for walking?
Yes, the Nike React foam technology provides excellent cushioning, making them comfortable for both skating and everyday walking.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can ruin the suede material and compromise the structural integrity of the cup sole.
What is the primary material used for the upper?
The upper is constructed from premium suede, complemented by knit mesh and quarter panel netting for breathability.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Yes, the Nike SB Ishod Wair typically fits true to size, though the internal straps provide a snug, secure feel.
What is the benefit of the reverse Swoosh design?
The reverse Swoosh is a nod to the '90s Nike Air Darwin, serving as a signature stylistic element of Ishod Wair's debut model.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel loose despite tight knots
Ensure the internal lacing straps are positioned correctly and not bunched up under the tongue; tighten the laces starting from the bottom eyelets.
Suede looks dull or matted
Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift the nap of the material, restoring its original texture.
Shoe feels too stiff initially
This is common with vulcanized cup soles; wear the shoes for short periods of light walking to allow the materials to break in naturally.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike SB Ishod Wair stays in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Setup: Ensure the laces are adjusted to your preferred tension using the integrated internal straps for optimal midfoot support.
- Cleaning: Use a dry soft-bristled brush to remove loose dirt from the suede surface. Avoid saturating the suede with water or harsh chemicals.
- Maintenance: If the suede becomes stained, use a dedicated suede eraser and cleaner specifically formulated for leather goods.
- Storage: Keep shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the suede color from fading over time.
- Compatibility: These trainers fit true to size; however, those planning to wear thicker performance socks may consider a slightly roomier fit.
