FAQs

What is 'Tuned Air' technology?

Tuned Air is an innovative cushioning system that uses 'breakable' air units placed strategically within the sole to provide targeted cushioning and support tailored to specific zones of the foot.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While they offer good cushioning, the Nike Air Max Plus are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers. For serious running, dedicated running shoes with more advanced features might be more appropriate.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is a small amount of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping. Refer to Nike's official sizing chart for precise measurements.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and the Tuned Air cushioning system.

What does the 'University Blue Gradient' refer to?

This refers to the color pattern on the shoe, where the mesh upper transitions smoothly from a lighter blue shade to a deeper 'University Blue' hue.

What are the wavy plastic overlays made of?

The wavy plastic overlays are typically made from durable TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane), designed to provide structure and a signature aesthetic.

Troubleshooting

Laces become dirty

Remove laces and wash them separately by hand with mild soap and water. Allow them to dry completely before re-lacing.

Slight stiffness upon first wear

Wear the trainers around the house for short periods to allow them to break in and mold to your foot shape.

Discoloration of mesh upper

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Designed for adult male foot sizes, specifically UK 4.5 in this variant. They are compatible with standard sock wear.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth or brush. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight to maintain color and material integrity. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain shape.
