FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for playing soccer?

No, these are lifestyle trainers designed for casual everyday wear, not for performance on a soccer pitch.

How should I clean the leather upper?

Use a soft, damp cloth for regular cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the leather finish.

Does the size 6 fit true to size?

Yes, these are standard adult sizes, but leather shoes may feel slightly snug initially until broken in.

Can I replace the insoles?

The insoles are designed for the specific Air Max experience, but they can be removed if you require custom orthotics.

What is the inspiration behind this model?

The shoe pays homage to Nike’s 2006 Joga Bonito campaign and the Mercurial R9 boots worn by Ronaldo Nazário.

Are they water-resistant?

While the leather offers some protection against light moisture, they are not fully waterproof and should be dried if soaked.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the leather toe box

Use a shoe tree when not wearing the shoes to help retain shape and minimize deep-set creases.

Surface scuffs on the leather

Use a dedicated leather conditioner or specialized sneaker cleaner to buff out surface marks gently.

Difficulty maintaining fit

Ensure laces are adjusted properly and that you are wearing socks of appropriate thickness for your foot size.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Iconic heritage design inspired by R9 soccer history
  • Reliable Air Max comfort for daily walking
  • Robust construction utilizing quality leather materials
  • Versatile grey and blue colorway that pairs easily with casual outfits

Cons

  • Not intended for active professional soccer match play
  • Limited availability due to specialized series run
  • Requires careful maintenance to preserve leather texture

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are lifestyle leather shoes, they require specific attention to keep the finish looking sharp. To ensure longevity, avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or mud, which can degrade the leather. If the shoes become wet, air dry them naturally at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators. For cleaning, wipe down the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth and use a gentle, leather-appropriate cleaner if necessary. When storing, keep the trainers in a cool, dry place and consider using shoe trees to help maintain the structure of the toe box and heel.
