Nike Book 1 - Orange - UK 12

The top-loaded Zoom Air unit in the heel is designed to provide highly responsive cushioning. This translates to quick, explosive energy return for jumping and sprinting, and effective impact absorption for sudden stops and landings, enhancing on-court agility.

While the multidirectional traction provides excellent grip, frequent use on abrasive outdoor courts may accelerate wear on the outsole compared to indoor use. These shoes are optimized for indoor performance but can be used outdoors.

For genuine leather, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry. For suede, use a soft-bristled brush (a suede brush works best) to remove loose dirt and restore the texture. Avoid excessive moisture and harsh cleaning agents.

The Nike Book 1 is ideal for agile, versatile basketball players who prioritize stability, responsive cushioning, and excellent traction for quick cuts, pivots, and explosive movements, reflecting Devin Booker's dynamic playing style.

Info needed: Sizing can vary between models and individual foot shapes. While many Nike basketball shoes run true to size, it is always recommended to try them on or consult a detailed size chart for the most accurate fit. This specific pair is a UK 12.

Thanks to the premium materials and design, the Nike Book 1 offers a plush, 'broken-in' feel almost immediately. A short period of light wear should be sufficient for the shoe to fully conform to your foot.

The 'workwear-inspired' design refers to the shoe's blend of durability, genuine leather, and soft suedes, giving it a rugged yet refined aesthetic. This design choice aims to provide a robust yet comfortable feel, echoing the characteristics of durable workwear while maintaining a performance edge.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks designed for basketball to wick away moisture and provide cushioning. Allow for a break-in period for the shoe to fully mold to your foot. If discomfort persists, try adjusting your lacing technique or consult a professional for proper fit assessment.

Regularly clean the outsole with a damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, and debris that can accumulate and reduce traction. Check the tread pattern for excessive wear, which might indicate the need for replacement if the grip has significantly diminished.

A certain amount of squeaking is common with high-traction basketball shoes. If it's unusually loud or persistent, check for small stones or debris trapped in the outsole grooves. A thorough cleaning of the outsole can sometimes resolve this.

For leather, gently wipe with a damp cloth. For suede, use a specialized suede brush to lift dirt and restore the nap. For tough stains, consider a reputable leather/suede cleaner according to its instructions. Always allow to air dry.
