FAQs

What makes the 'Big Bubble' Air unit different?

The 'Big Bubble' refers to a larger, more prominent visible Air unit in the heel compared to some later iterations of the Air Max 1. This larger unit is designed to provide enhanced cushioning and a more pronounced visual impact.

What materials are used in the Nike Air Max 1 '86 OG Big Bubble Lost Sketch?

The shoe features a combination of breathable mesh for ventilation and leather for durability and structure in its upper. The midsole is primarily foam with the visible Air unit, and the outsole is rubber.

How should I clean the grey leather and mesh parts?

For leather, use a specialized leather cleaner with a soft cloth. For mesh, a slightly damp cloth with mild soap is suitable. Always air dry and avoid direct heat.

Is this shoe suitable for running?

While the Air unit provides cushioning, this model is primarily designed as a lifestyle sneaker for everyday wear and casual activities, not for high-impact running or specialized athletic training.

What does 'Lost Sketch' refer to in the name?

The 'Lost Sketch' name likely refers to a design concept or an early blueprint that inspired this particular colorway, giving it a unique, perhaps unfinished or experimental aesthetic.

What was the original release date and price?

The Nike Air Max 1 '86 OG Big Bubble Lost Sketch was first released for retail on June 16th, 2023, with an original price of $170.

How do I find the right size?

It is recommended to consult the Nike sizing chart or try the shoes on in person, as some users find Nike Air Max 1 models can fit slightly differently. Pay attention to reviews regarding fit if possible.

Troubleshooting

Tight fit or discomfort

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Consider using thicker socks for a snugger fit or thinner socks if the shoe feels too tight. Wearing them for short periods initially can help break them in.

Squeaking sound from the sole

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the sole and the insole, or moisture. Try removing the insole, cleaning both sides, and ensuring it's completely dry before reinserting. A small amount of talcum powder under the insole might also help.

Discoloration on the midsole or upper

Follow the care instructions for cleaning specific materials. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. For the washed light brown midsole, gentle wiping with a damp cloth is recommended.

Visible Air unit appears cloudy or foggy

This is normal and often happens due to temperature changes or pressure. It does not typically affect the cushioning performance. If the unit appears to be leaking or damaged, discontinue use and consult retailer.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For stubborn marks on the rubber outsole, a soft brush might be effective.
  • Drying: Always air dry the shoes. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or prolonged exposure to sunlight, which can damage the materials.
