FAQs

What makes this shoe a 'triple collaboration'?

This shoe is the result of a collaboration between three distinct entities: Nike, sacai, and Undercover, each contributing their unique design perspectives.

What does 'sacai's reconstructive design aesthetic' mean?

It refers to sacai's signature style of deconstructing and reassembling garments and footwear, often featuring doubled elements like tongues, soles, and overlays, creating a unique, layered appearance.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is primarily constructed from Midnight Spruce nylon, complemented by black and red leather, and grey hairy suede overlays.

Is this shoe suitable for running or athletic activities?

No, this is a lifestyle sneaker designed for casual wear and aesthetic appeal. It is not optimized for performance in running or other strenuous athletic activities.

How should I clean the hairy suede parts?

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently clean the hairy suede. Avoid using water or standard cleaning solutions, as they can damage the texture and color.

When was this shoe released?

The Nike LD Waffle sacai Undercover Midnight Spruce was released in October 2021.

What are the main color components of this specific variant?

This variant features a 'Midnight Spruce' nylon upper with black and red leather accents, and grey hairy suede overlays.

Troubleshooting

Suede material appears matted or dirty

Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner.

Colors appear faded

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Store shoes in a dark, cool place. Ensure cleaning products used are color-safe.

Sole feels less cushioned over time

The cushioning is designed for lifestyle wear. For extended comfort, consider using specialized insoles. The doubled sole construction provides inherent support.

Laces seem uneven or difficult to adjust

Ensure laces are threaded through the eyelets evenly. Loosen laces completely before re-tying for a balanced fit. The doubled tongues might require slight adjustment for optimal comfort.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear sneakers; no assembly or setup is required upon purchase. Ensure you have selected the correct size for a comfortable fit.

Compatibility: Designed for adult males, this specific UK size 13 variant is compatible with standard sock choices. The shoe's aesthetic is broadly compatible with contemporary streetwear fashion.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt from the nylon and leather. For the hairy suede, use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove debris and maintain texture. Avoid excessive water, as it can damage the materials.
  2. Storage: Store the sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and material degradation. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
  3. Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for mixed materials (nylon, leather, suede) to offer an additional layer of protection against spills and the elements.
