Nike Book 1 EP 'Blue Blood' - Blue - UK 8.5

The primary material is a blue denim upper with frayed edges, offering a vintage-inspired, deconstructed aesthetic.

The shoe features a Cushlon 2.0 foam midsole combined with an integrated Air Zoom unit for responsive cushioning and impact protection.

This shoe is designed for adult males looking for a stylish trainer with a unique, vintage-inspired look and comfortable wear.

The 'Blue Blood' colorway, with its blue denim and royal blue accents, pays homage to Devin Booker's collegiate team, the Kentucky Wildcats.

Clean the denim upper with a soft brush for loose dirt. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap and water, and allow to air dry. Avoid soaking.

EP typically stands for 'engineered performance' or 'extra platform,' often indicating a specific version or fit designed for enhanced performance or wider feet, though specific details may vary by release.

While inspired by basketball heritage, the 'Blue Blood' is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual wear shoe. For professional play, specific performance basketball shoes with advanced support and traction are recommended.

Adjust the lacing system. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size based on your foot measurement. Consider using thicker or thinner socks to slightly alter the fit.

Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Blot the stain rather than rubbing to avoid spreading it. Allow to air dry.

The frayed edges are part of the design aesthetic. If excessive fraying becomes a concern, minimal trimming with sharp scissors can be considered, but proceed with caution to maintain the intended look.

Ensure the Air Zoom unit is not compromised and the Cushlon 2.0 midsole is free from debris. Regular cleaning and avoiding extreme conditions can help maintain performance.
