FAQs
What is Flyleather?
Flyleather is a sustainable material made by Nike, consisting of at least 55% recycled leather fiber. It offers a premium look and feel similar to traditional leather but with a reduced environmental impact.
How do I clean the artistic elements?
The artistic details, such as the watercolor Swooshes and brush strokes, should be cleaned very gently. Use a soft, dry cloth or a very slightly damp cloth. Avoid aggressive scrubbing or harsh cleaning agents to preserve the unique design.
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
These are lifestyle sneakers designed for casual wear and comfort. They are not intended for high-impact sports or athletic performance.
What does the Mayumi Yamase collaboration signify?
The collaboration with artist Mayumi Yamase brings a unique artistic vision to the classic Nike Blazer silhouette, featuring hand-painted and watercolor-inspired details that reflect her personal style.
How do I care for the suede parts?
Use a suede brush to keep the suede looking its best. For stains, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner can be used cautiously, following the product's instructions.
What is the release date and original retail price?
The Nike Blazer Low '77 Flyleather Mayumi Yamase White was released on June 25, 2021, and originally retailed for $100.
Can I remove the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are typically removable, allowing for easier cleaning or the insertion of custom orthotics if needed.
Troubleshooting
Slight color bleeding on artistic details
This can occur with watercolor-inspired designs. Avoid excessive moisture and direct contact with other light-colored materials, especially when new. If minor bleeding occurs, gently dab with a clean, dry cloth. For significant issues, consult a professional shoe cleaner specializing in artistic footwear.
Suede material looks matted or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaning solution, following product instructions carefully.
Unusual squeaking sound
This may be due to the tongue rubbing against the shoe interior or moisture trapped within the sole. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the tongue or ensuring the shoes are completely dry.
Fit feels slightly tight
Wear the shoes with medium-thickness socks for a few hours each day to allow the Flyleather and suede to break in. Avoid wearing them for extended periods until they feel more comfortable.
