FAQs

Are these trainers true to size?

Generally, Nike Air Force 1 trainers are considered true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size for the best fit.

Can I wear these for sports or running?

While comfortable, these trainers are designed for casual wear and fashion. They are not engineered for the specialized support and performance required for sports like running or basketball.

How often should I clean the leather?

For optimal maintenance, wipe down the leather after each wear to remove superficial dirt. A deeper clean and conditioning can be done every few weeks or as needed, depending on usage.

What is Nike Air cushioning?

Nike Air cushioning is a technology that uses pressurized air inside a durable, flexible membrane to provide lightweight cushioning and impact absorption, enhancing comfort with every step.

Will the black color fade over time?

With proper care and by avoiding prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, the black leather should retain its color well. Regular cleaning and conditioning can help maintain its richness.

Are these trainers waterproof?

The premium leather offers some natural water resistance, but these trainers are not fully waterproof. We recommend applying a water and stain repellent spray for added protection in wet conditions.

What does 'LV8' mean in the product name?

'LV8' typically signifies 'elevate' or a slightly enhanced version of the classic Air Force 1 model, often featuring premium materials or unique design details like the contrast stitching seen here.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

This is common with new leather footwear. Wear them for short periods initially to allow the leather to break in and mold to your feet. The Nike Air cushioning will also adapt over time.

Creases are forming on the toebox.

Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather with wear. To minimize, use shoe trees when not wearing them. Avoid walking with excessive toe bending where possible.

Stains on the leather upper.

For light stains, wipe immediately with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner specifically designed for premium leather footwear. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Soles are dirty and losing grip.

Use a stiff brush (like a toothbrush) and a mixture of mild soap and water to scrub the synthetic sole. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry. Regular cleaning helps maintain traction.

Trainers develop an odor.

Ensure trainers are fully dry after each wear. Use shoe deodorizers or place baking soda in socks inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Allow adequate ventilation when storing.

Care Instructions

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the aesthetic of your trainers, especially given their premium leather upper.

  1. Initial Protection: Consider applying a quality leather protector spray before the first wear to guard against water and stains.
  2. Regular Cleaning: For daily dirt, gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft brush or cloth.
  3. Sole Cleaning: Clean the synthetic sole with a brush and mild soap solution to remove dirt and grime.
  4. Drying: Always allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources or sunlight, which can damage the leather.
  5. Crease Prevention: To minimize creasing, use shoe trees or stuff the trainers with paper when not in use. Avoid folding or crushing them.
  6. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  7. Deep Cleaning: Periodically, condition the leather with a suitable leather conditioner to keep it supple and prevent cracking.
