FAQs

What makes this shoe a "limited edition"?

The "limited edition" status comes from it being a special collaboration between Nike, Sacai, and Undercover, produced in a finite quantity.

How should I clean the layered components?

Carefully clean each material separately. Use a soft brush for nylon and suede, and a damp cloth for leather. Avoid aggressive scrubbing on any component.

Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?

While built with Nike's footwear expertise, the design focus is on style and comfort for casual wear rather than high-intensity athletic performance.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The primary material of the upper is stitched nylon, with additional overlays made of leather and hairy suede.

What does "Sacai's reconstructive design aesthetic" refer to?

This refers to Sacai's signature style of deconstructing and reassembling garments and footwear, often by doubling or layering components, as seen in the doubled tongues and soles of this shoe.

When was this shoe originally released?

The Nike LD Waffle x Sacai x Undercover "Midnight Spruce" was released in October 2021.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear these shoes in wet weather as moisture can damage the suede and potentially cause color bleeding from the nylon and leather components.

Troubleshooting

Suede appearing matted or dirty

Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For tougher dirt, consider a specialized suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Laces becoming worn or dirty

Laces can be carefully removed, hand-washed with mild detergent, and air-dried. Replacement laces are also widely available.

Color transfer from darker materials

Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture, which can increase the risk of color transfer. If transfer occurs, attempt to clean the affected area gently with a damp cloth.
