FAQs

What is the main inspiration behind the Air Max 97 design?

The design is inspired by the ripples of water and the Japanese Shinkansen bullet train, contributing to its distinctive wave-like aesthetic.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While they offer excellent cushioning, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers for everyday wear and walking, not high-performance running.

How do I know if I have the correct size?

This specific variant is a UK size 15. Ensure your foot measurements align with standard UK sizing charts for trainers.

What does the 'OG' in the name signify?

'OG' typically stands for 'Original', indicating that this release is a faithful reproduction or reissue of the original colorway and design.

How do I care for the leather and reflective materials?

Use a damp cloth for general cleaning and specialized leather cleaner for stubborn marks. Avoid harsh chemicals and excessive moisture. Store away from direct sunlight to protect the reflective elements.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, cushioning, and reflective materials. Hand wash gently as per care instructions.

What is the significance of the Voltage Yellow color?

The Voltage Yellow color is used for the Air Max cushioning unit and accents, providing a bright contrast to the Atlantic Blue and celebrating the Air Max heritage.

Troubleshooting

Reflective stripes losing reflectivity

Avoid abrasive cleaning methods. Use a soft cloth and mild cleaner specifically designed for reflective materials if available. Ensure shoes are stored away from direct sunlight.

Leather creasing excessively

While some creasing is natural with leather, use shoe trees to help maintain shape and reduce severe creasing when not worn. Avoid overly tight lacing.

Discomfort or pressure points

Ensure you have the correct size (UK 15 in this variant). Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods initially. Consider using insoles for added comfort if needed.

Yellowing of the Air Max unit

Some yellowing over time is a natural characteristic of older Air Max cushioning units, especially when exposed to light. Store the shoes properly when not in use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: Designed for adult males, specifically in a UK size 15. Compatible with most casual outfits.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water, as they can damage the leather and reflective materials.
  2. Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, which can cause the leather to crack.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box, to protect them from dust and direct sunlight. Stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape when not in use.
  4. Reflective Stripes: Be cautious when cleaning the reflective stripes to avoid scratching or diminishing their reflectivity.
