FAQs

What materials are the Nike Air Max 1 '87 Velvet Brown made from?

These shoes are crafted with a blend of premium materials, including dark brown suede for the mudguard, breathable white mesh for the base, and tan leather for the overlays.

Can I use these shoes for running or intense workouts?

While versatile for casual wear and light fitness activities, they are not designed for intense running or high-impact athletic training. Their primary purpose is comfort and style for everyday use and light exercise.

How do I clean the suede portions of the shoe?

For suede, it's best to use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dirt. For tougher marks, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid using water or harsh liquid cleaners directly on suede to prevent damage.

What is the 'Visible AIR unit'?

The Visible AIR unit is a proprietary Nike technology that incorporates a pocket of pressurized gas within the midsole. This provides lightweight cushioning and impact absorption, offering enhanced comfort and support.

Are these shoes true to size?

Nike Air Max 1 models generally run true to size for most individuals. However, fit can vary, so it is recommended to try them on or consult a size guide if unsure.

How can I prevent my shoes from getting dirty quickly?

Applying a protective spray specifically designed for mixed-material sneakers (suede, mesh, leather) can help repel water and stains. Regular light cleaning after each wear also helps maintain their appearance.

Can I machine wash these sneakers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the premium materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Always opt for spot cleaning and air drying.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on mesh areas

Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush, then use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap. Blot dry and air dry completely.

Suede looks matted or dirty

Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove dry dirt. For embedded marks, a suede eraser can be used sparingly.

Squeaking sound when walking

Often caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing and reinserting the insole, or applying a small amount of baby powder underneath it.

Laces constantly come untied

Ensure you are using a double knot for added security. Consider replacing laces if they are old or worn, as new laces often hold better.

Unpleasant odor inside the shoe

Remove insoles and allow them to air out. Sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes and leave overnight, then shake out. Consider using odor-absorbing inserts.

  • Casual Wear: Everyday activities, social outings, walking.

Care Instructions

To maintain the premium look and longevity of your Velvet Brown Air Max 1 '87, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Spot Cleaning: For most dirt, gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid saturating the materials.
  2. Suede Areas: Use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid water or harsh cleaners directly on suede.
  3. Mesh Areas: Lightly brush off loose dirt. For stains, use a diluted mild soap solution with a soft cloth or brush, then gently blot dry.
  4. Leather Overlays: Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Use a leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking.
  5. Drying: Always allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources, which can damage materials.
  6. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and material degradation. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
  7. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use bleach or aggressive cleaning agents as they can damage the materials and colors.
