FAQs
Is the Nike Air Skylon 2 waterproof?
No, these trainers are not waterproof and are intended for dry, casual use.
Does this model provide arch support?
It provides standard moderate support suitable for everyday wear, but not medical-grade orthotic support.
Can I use these for heavy gym workouts?
These are primarily lifestyle trainers; it is recommended to use dedicated training shoes for high-impact gym sessions.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
This model corresponds to a standard UK 9; if you are between sizes in Nike, consider your preferred fit for casual sneakers.
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the construction and cushioning. Stick to manual cleaning with a cloth.
What is the primary material used?
The Skylon 2 uses a combination of breathable synthetic materials and durable overlays typical of 90s athletic footwear.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on upper
Use a soft-bristled brush and a mild soap solution to gently remove debris.
Shoe feels slightly tight
Loosen the laces fully before putting the shoe on to allow the upper to sit naturally on your foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Skylon 2 sneakers last, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: Ensure you confirm your UK size 9 fit before heavy use; if they feel tight, allow for a brief break-in period.
- Cleaning: Wipe the upper surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents which can damage the fabric and adhesive.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation and color fading.
- Maintenance: Air out your trainers after a long day of use to manage moisture inside the lining.
