FAQs
What is Nike EasyOn?
Nike EasyOn is a system designed to make shoes simpler for children to put on and take off by themselves. In these Air Max 90s, it involves elastic laces and a hook-and-loop strap, promoting independence for young wearers.
Are these sneakers suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, with their soft foam midsole and visible Max Air cushioning, these sneakers are designed for all-day comfort, making them perfect for school, play, and various daily activities.
How do I clean the leather upper?
To clean the leather, gently wipe it with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap if needed. Avoid harsh chemicals. For scuffs, a specialized leather cleaner can be used. Always air dry the shoes completely.
Does the Max Air unit require any special maintenance?
The visible Max Air unit is a sealed cushioning system and does not require any special maintenance. Its primary function is to provide long-lasting comfort and impact absorption.
Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?
While the leather offers some natural resistance to light moisture, these shoes are not waterproof. For prolonged exposure to rain or wet conditions, consider using a water-resistant spray designed for leather to offer additional protection.
How do I ensure I choose the right size for my child?
Children's feet grow rapidly, so it's best to measure your child's feet regularly. Consult Nike's official sizing chart and consider measuring both feet, as one can be slightly larger than the other. Always try shoes on with the type of socks your child typically wears.
Troubleshooting
Shoes are difficult to put on or take off.
Ensure the hook-and-loop strap is fully opened to provide ample space. Use the heel pull tab to assist in slipping the foot in and out easily. Double-check that socks are not bunched up inside the shoe.
Shoes appear dirty or scuffed after play.
For leather surfaces, gently wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, a mild leather cleaner can be applied. For non-leather parts like the outsole, use a brush or cloth with water to remove dirt. Regular cleaning after wear helps prevent build-up.
My child complains of discomfort or rubbing.
Verify the shoe size is correct for your child's current foot measurements, as children's feet grow quickly. Ensure socks are appropriate and smooth. Allow for a short 'break-in' period for the leather to soften and conform to the foot.
The outsole seems to be losing traction.
Regularly inspect the rubber waffle outsole for embedded debris and clean it with a brush and water to restore grip. Ensure the tread isn't excessively worn down, which can happen with prolonged heavy use.

Care:
Given the durable leather construction, regular cleaning is recommended to maintain the shoes' appearance and longevity, especially for the white variant.
- Spot Cleaning: For minor dirt and scuffs, gently wipe the leather surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. A small amount of mild soap can be used for tougher spots.
- Deep Cleaning: For more significant cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner, following the product's instructions.
- Drying: Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as these can damage the leather.
- Avoid Submerging: Do not machine wash or submerge the shoes in water.
- Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to help repel water and stains, particularly for lighter colors.
