FAQs

What is the primary material of the Nike Air Max Plus 'Sesame' trainers?

The trainers feature a combination of breathable mesh for the upper and leather for the wavy line overlays. They also include plastic detailing on the toe cap and midsole.

How does the hiking-inspired lace system work?

This system uses thin laces and an adjustable toggle. You pull the toggle to tighten the laces for a secure fit and release it to loosen them.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While they feature Nike Air units for cushioning and were inspired by performance-running roots, they are primarily designed for lifestyle wear and casual use, offering comfort for walking.

How do I clean the distressed midsole details?

Clean these areas gently with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing, as this may alter the intended distressed appearance.

What does 'Sesame' refer to in the product name?

'Sesame' refers to the primary earthy colorway of the trainers. It is complemented by accents in Smokey Mauve, Hemp, Light Bone, and Red Stardust.

Can I replace the laces on this model?

Yes, the laces can be replaced. If you choose to replace them, ensure you select laces of a similar thin profile to work effectively with the toggle system.

What is the intended feel of the midsole design?

The midsole features distressed detailing designed to create a worn-in, trail-ready aesthetic, matching the sneaker’s outdoorsy theme.

Troubleshooting

Laces are difficult to tighten or loosen.

Ensure the lace toggle is clean and free of debris. If it feels stuck, gently try to dislodge any obstruction. If the laces themselves are worn, consider replacing them.

Mesh material seems to be snagging easily.

Be mindful of sharp objects or rough surfaces. For minor snags, a fine-toothed comb or tweezers can sometimes be used to carefully smooth the fibers. Avoid forceful pulling.

Discolored patches on the midsole.

The distressed detailing is an intentional design feature. If discoloration is due to dirt, try cleaning gently with a damp cloth. Avoid aggressive scrubbing which could remove the intended finish.

Uneven fit or discomfort.

Adjust the hiking-inspired lace toggle to achieve a more secure and even fit. Ensure the shoe is the correct size for your foot. Try different lacing patterns if needed.

Care:
