FAQs
What is the main inspiration behind the Nike Air Max 97 Gorge Green?
The design is inspired by the high-speed Japanese silver bullet trains, reflecting a sleek, innovative, and dynamic aesthetic.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the Air Max 97 offers good cushioning for general comfort and walking, they are primarily designed as lifestyle or casual athletic shoes rather than specialized running shoes.
How do I clean the Gorge Green mesh and leather?
Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cold water. Avoid harsh chemicals. For leather, wipe clean and condition if necessary. Allow to air dry.
Does the 3M reflective material affect the shoe's appearance during the day?
No, the 3M reflective material is integrated subtly into the design and does not significantly alter the shoe's appearance in normal daylight. Its reflective properties are most prominent under direct light, especially in low-light conditions.
What is the difference between this and other Air Max 97 models?
The primary distinction is the specific Gorge Green colorway, the combination of obsidian mesh and black leather, and the Midnight Navy Max Air unit. Other models may vary in color, materials, and minor design details.
What UK size is this specific product?
This specific product listing is for a Women's UK size 13.
Is the Gorge Green color accurate to the images?
Color perception can vary slightly based on screen settings and lighting conditions. However, the Gorge Green is a distinct and vibrant hue intended to be a primary visual feature of the sneaker.
Troubleshooting
Poor fit or discomfort
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the fit is still not right, consider the possibility that the shoe's shape does not match your foot type. Try wearing them with appropriate socks.
Scuffs on the white midsole
Gently clean the scuffs with a damp cloth. For more persistent marks, a magic eraser can be used with light pressure. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
Reduced reflectivity
Ensure the 3M reflective material is clean. Dirt and grime can obscure the reflective properties. Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap.
Creasing on leather overlays
Creasing is a natural part of leather wear. To minimize excessive creasing, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use.

Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cold water to gently clean the mesh and synthetic leather. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
