FAQs

Is this shoe suitable for daily walking?

Yes, the React foam cushioning provides excellent comfort for all-day wear beyond just skateboarding.

How do I clean the suede material?

Use a soft brush for dry dirt. For deep stains, use a suede-specific eraser; avoid submerging the shoes in water.

What is the purpose of the internal straps?

The straps are part of the lacing system, designed to lock your foot in place for better stability and control.

Are these shoes true to size?

Most users find them to be true to size, though the internal straps provide a snug fit.

Can I use these shoes in wet conditions?

It is not recommended, as moisture can damage the suede and affect the adhesive on the sole.

What inspired the design of the Ishod Wair SB?

The design draws heavy inspiration from '90s basketball shoes, specifically borrowing the reverse Swoosh from the Nike Air Darwin.

Troubleshooting

Tongue shifting during skating

Re-adjust the internal straps to ensure they are properly seated against your midfoot.

Suede looks matted or worn

Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap of the material by brushing in one consistent direction.

Difficulty putting the shoe on

Loosen the laces fully, including the top eyelets, to accommodate the internal strap lockdown system.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longest lifespan for your Nike SB Ishod Wair shoes, avoid exposing the suede upper to excessive water or mud, as these can cause discoloration and degradation of the material. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust and dirt. If you encounter deep stains on the suede, use a specialized suede eraser or a light application of a dedicated suede cleaning solution. When lacing, ensure the interior straps are properly aligned with the tongue to maximize the secure fit. These shoes are true to size for most adult users, but if you prefer extra room for thicker skate socks, consider your typical Nike sizing. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the light olive dye from fading.
