FAQs

Are these sneakers suitable for running?

While the Nike Air Max 1 '87 offers comfort and cushioning, it's primarily designed for casual wear and light fitness activities, not intense running or performance sports.

How do I best clean the 'Velvet Brown' materials?

For suede, use a dry suede brush and eraser. For mesh, a soft brush with mild soap and water. For leather, a damp cloth or specialized leather cleaner. Always air dry and consider a protective spray.

What is the 'visible AIR unit'?

The visible AIR unit is Nike's innovative cushioning technology, providing lightweight comfort and impact absorption, visible through a small window in the midsole.

What are the primary materials used in this shoe?

This model features a combination of dark brown suede for the mudguard, a breathable white mesh base, and tan leather overlays, along with a black rubber outsole.

Is this model available in other colors?

This specific variant is the 'Velvet Brown' colorway. While the Air Max 1 '87 model may come in other color options, this product guide focuses on the 'Velvet Brown' edition.

How should I store these sneakers to maintain their condition?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape, and storing them in their original box or a breathable bag can protect them from dust.

Troubleshooting

Suede or velvet looks matted or dirty.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush away dirt and lift the nap. For tougher spots, a suede eraser can be effective. Follow up with a protective spray.

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure you have the correct size. The shoe is designed to provide a comfortable fit; if discomfort persists, consider checking lacing tightness. A short break-in period might also be necessary.

The white mesh base appears discolored or stained.

Gently clean the mesh using a soft brush (like a toothbrush) with a mixture of mild soap and water. Rinse with a damp cloth and air dry. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Outsole traction seems reduced.

Regularly clean the waffle pattern outsole to remove accumulated dirt and debris, which can reduce grip. Use a brush and water to scrub the grooves.

Water marks or stains on leather overlays.

For fresh water marks, gently wipe with a clean, damp cloth and let air dry. For tougher stains, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for sneakers, following its instructions.
