Product Information

Full details

The Nike Air Max 90 GORE-TEX 'Infrared' is designed for the adult male who seeks both iconic style and practical weather protection in a sneaker. Its key benefit is the combination of classic Air Max comfort with GORE-TEX waterproofing, making it suitable for varied conditions. A potential caveat to consider is that while waterproof, the breathability might differ from non-waterproofed models. This trainer features a durable leather and mesh upper, GORE-TEX technology for waterproofing, and the signature visible Air Max unit for cushioning, all in a striking Infrared colorway with grey and white accents.

FAQs

Are the Nike Air Max 90 GORE-TEX 'Infrared' truly waterproof?

Yes, the upper is constructed with GORE-TEX, a technology specifically designed to be waterproof while remaining breathable.

How should I clean my GORE-TEX Air Max 90s?

Wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing or drying.

Can I wear these for running?

These trainers are designed for casual wear and light activities. While they offer comfort and cushioning, they are not specialized running shoes.

What is the main difference between this and a standard Air Max 90?

The primary difference is the inclusion of GORE-TEX material in the upper, providing enhanced waterproofing and weather resistance.

What does 'Infrared' refer to?

'Infrared' is a colorway famously used by Nike, characterized by vibrant red accents, which is present on this model.

Are they available in men's and women's sizes?

This specific model is listed with men's sizing (adult male). However, Nike often releases similar styles in a range of gender-specific sizes.

What is the material of the shoe?

The upper is made from a combination of GORE-TEX fabric, leather, and synthetic overlays, with a lightweight mesh base.

Troubleshooting

Water seeping through the shoe

Ensure all seals and seams are intact. Clean the exterior thoroughly and allow to air dry. If the GORE-TEX membrane is compromised, professional repair or replacement may be needed.

Reduced breathability or feeling warm

GORE-TEX offers a balance of waterproofness and breathability. If feeling excessively warm, ensure socks are moisture-wicking. Check that ventilation areas are not obstructed.

Difficulty putting on the shoe

Loosen the laces completely before attempting to put on the shoe. Ensure the tongue is positioned correctly. If the shoe is too tight, consider if it's the correct size.

Squeaking noise during wear

This can sometimes occur with new shoes or due to moisture. Try wearing thicker socks or ensure the shoe is completely dry inside and out.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup. They are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.

Compatibility:

  • Sizing: Available in various UK adult male sizes. Refer to sizing charts for the best fit.
  • Footwear: Designed primarily for casual wear and light athletic activities. Not intended for intense sports.

Care:

  • Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the GORE-TEX and leather surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners that can damage the waterproof membrane or materials.
  • Drying: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can degrade the materials and GORE-TEX.
  • Laces: Remove laces for cleaning and allow them to dry completely before re-inserting.
  • Insoles: If removable, clean insoles separately with mild soap and water, ensuring they are fully dry before placing them back in the shoes.
