FAQs
Are Nike Air Max 90 trainers true to size?
Generally, yes. However, due to the structured leather upper, those with wider feet may prefer to go up a half size for a more comfortable fit.
Can I use these for running?
While originally designed as running shoes, modern versions are optimized for casual lifestyle wear. They are better suited for walking and daily activities rather than long-distance running.
How do I keep the white parts of the sole clean?
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution or a mild soap mixture with an old toothbrush to scrub the rubber outsole gently.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, they are made from leather and textiles which are not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.
What is the purpose of the hole in the heel?
That is the visible Max Air unit, which provides cushioning and shock absorption while offering the signature aesthetic of the Air Max series.
Do I need to break these in?
The leather construction may feel slightly stiff initially. Wearing them for shorter periods during the first few days will allow the materials to soften and conform to your foot.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on the leather upper
Gently wipe the surface with a soft, slightly dampened cloth and mild detergent, then pat dry with a clean towel.
Creasing in the toe box area
This is a natural characteristic of leather footwear; using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain the shoe's shape.
Loss of cushioning feel
Ensure the insoles are properly seated and check for wear in the foam midsole; replacing the factory insole with a third-party option can sometimes refresh comfort.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Max 90 trainers remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Since the upper is constructed from leather, avoid submerging the shoes in water; instead, use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap to spot clean soiled areas. Allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent material cracking. Ensure you have the correct size for your foot shape, as the padded collar is designed to fit snugly. If you plan on wearing thicker socks, consider that the leather upper has limited stretch compared to knit materials.
