FAQs

When were these Nike LDWaffle sacai Undercover sneakers released?

The Nike LDWaffle sacai Undercover Black Bright Citron was released in October 2021.

What materials are used in the construction of these shoes?

They are constructed with a combination of nylon, leather, and hairy suede.

What is the significance of the 'sacai' and 'Undercover' collaborations?

These collaborations bring together the unique design aesthetics of Nike with two influential fashion brands, sacai and Undercover, resulting in innovative and hybrid designs.

How do I clean the hairy suede parts?

Use a soft brush or suede eraser for dry dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner sparingly and avoid excessive moisture.

Are these sneakers suitable for athletic performance?

While comfortable for walking, these sneakers are primarily fashion-oriented and not designed for high-impact athletic activities. Their complex construction is best suited for lifestyle wear.

What does the 'doubled' design element refer to?

It refers to sacai's signature reconstructive approach where elements like the tongues, overlays, and soles appear to be layered or doubled up for a unique visual effect.

What is the original retail price?

The original retail price was $170.

Troubleshooting

Hairy suede appears matted or dirty

Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush to restore its texture. For persistent dirt, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Tongues or overlays feel stiff

This is normal due to the layered construction and material mix. With continued wear, the materials will naturally conform to your foot for increased comfort.

Color transfer from 'Bright Citron' accents

While unlikely with proper care, avoid prolonged contact with light-colored materials, especially when the sneakers are new or exposed to moisture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: As a pair of sneakers, there is no setup required beyond lacing them up. Ensure the laces are tied securely but not excessively tight to maintain comfort.

Compatibility: These sneakers are highly versatile and pair well with a wide range of casual and fashion-forward apparel. They are suitable for adults and are designed for unisex wear, though listed with male sizing.

Care:

  • Cleaning Suede: Use a soft brush or suede eraser to gently remove dry dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner sparingly, following product instructions. Avoid excessive water.
  • Cleaning Leather & Nylon: Use a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe down leather and nylon surfaces. Ensure the cloth is not overly wet.
  • Soles: The rubber soles can be cleaned with a damp cloth or a soft brush. For tougher marks, a magic eraser can be effective.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and light.
