FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the Air Max 97 was originally inspired by performance running, this model is best suited for lifestyle and casual everyday use.

How do I clean the reflective strips?

Gently wipe the reflective areas with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals that could strip the reflective coating.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Generally, the Air Max 97 fits true to size, but the construction is somewhat slim due to the design; if you have wider feet, you may consider a half-size up.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the leather, adhesives, and the integrity of the air cushioning unit. Always hand clean.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is crafted from a durable combination of tumbled leather and breathable mesh.

Is the air bubble prone to popping?

The Nike Air unit is durable and designed to withstand normal walking impact, but sharp objects should be avoided to prevent punctures.

Troubleshooting

Visible scuffs on leather surface

Use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft cloth to buff away light scuffs; avoid harsh detergents.

Creasing in the toe box

Insert shoe trees when the trainers are not being worn to help retain the shoe's original shape.

Dirt stuck in mesh underlays

Use a dry, soft-bristled toothbrush to carefully dislodge dirt without getting the shoe excessively wet.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Iconic and versatile 'Bred' color scheme
  • Full-length air unit offers excellent shock absorption
  • Durable leather construction
  • Added safety through reflective design elements
  • Breathable mesh panels prevent overheating

Cons

  • Reflective material requires gentle cleaning
  • Leather overlays can scuff if not treated
  • More substantial weight compared to minimal running shoes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best fit, ensure you are wearing the appropriate size for your arch type. To maintain the appearance of the trainers, wipe them down with a damp, soft cloth after use to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the leather and damage the air cushioning unit. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the red accents from fading over time. When cleaning the mesh portions, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove debris without damaging the fabric fibers.
