FAQs

What unique materials are used in this shoe?

This special edition features a combination of horsehair textile, commonly known as hair-on cowhide, for unique texture, along with premium leather overlays on the upper.

How do I properly clean the hair-on cowhide material?

For hair-on cowhide, gently brush in the direction of the hair with a soft, dry brush to remove dust and debris. Avoid getting this section overly wet and do not use harsh cleaning agents. For light stains, a very slightly damp cloth can be used by dabbing, not rubbing.

Is this shoe suitable for sports or athletic activities?

While the Air Force 3 has roots in basketball, this specific 'SP' (Special Project) Nigo collaboration is designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. It offers comfort for everyday use but is not optimized for high-performance sports.

What is the meaning of 'SP' in the product name?

'SP' typically stands for 'Special Project' or 'Special Edition,' indicating that this is a unique or limited-release collaboration, in this case, with fashion designer Nigo.

Does this sneaker come with any special accessories?

Yes, this special edition includes an exclusive 'I Patch' and a Nike Pin, allowing you to customize your sneakers and personal style.

What kind of cushioning does this shoe have?

The sneaker features Nike Air cushioning, which provides lightweight, responsive shock absorption and comfort, enhancing wearability throughout the day.

Is the sizing true to fit for this model?

Nike Air Force models generally fit true to size for most individuals. However, personal fit preferences may vary. It is recommended to try them on if possible or refer to Nike's official size guide.

Troubleshooting

Hair-on cowhide appears matted or dirty.

Gently brush the hair-on cowhide with a soft-bristled brush (e.g., a suede brush or soft toothbrush) in the direction of the hair to restore its texture and remove surface dirt. Avoid aggressive scrubbing or harsh liquids.

Leather overlays show minor scuffs or dryness.

Clean the area with a soft, damp cloth. For scuffs, a specialized leather cleaner or conditioner can be applied sparingly with a clean cloth, buffing gently to restore shine and moisturize the leather. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Squeaking noise when walking.

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Check if the insoles are properly seated. Removing the insoles and sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or talcum powder underneath them can often resolve the issue by reducing friction.

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

Like many premium leather shoes, these sneakers may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house before extended outings. The materials will gradually conform to your foot shape for a more comfortable fit.

Care Instructions

Proper care will help maintain the unique aesthetics and longevity of your sneakers, especially given their distinct materials.

  1. General Cleaning: For regular dirt and dust, use a soft, dry brush to gently remove debris from both the leather and hair-on cowhide sections.
  2. Leather Care: For leather overlays, wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner sparingly. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
  3. Hair-on Cowhide Care: This material requires delicate handling. Avoid excessive rubbing or harsh scrubbing. If necessary, use a very soft brush (like a toothbrush) to gently remove surface dirt, always brushing in the direction of the hair. Avoid getting this section overly wet.
  4. Stain Removal: For small stains, use a mild, diluted soap solution on a soft cloth, dabbing gently. Blot dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they can damage the materials.
  5. Drying: If your sneakers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can cause materials to crack or shrink.
  6. Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
  7. Protection: Applying a water and stain repellent specifically designed for leather and delicate textiles can help protect your sneakers from elements, but always test on a small area first.
