FAQs

What makes the 'Big Bubble' Air Units special?

The 'Big Bubble' refers to a larger, more prominent visible Air unit in the heel compared to some earlier versions, offering enhanced cushioning and a distinctive aesthetic.

How do I clean the mesh and leather parts of the shoe?

Use a soft cloth with mild soap and water for both leather and mesh. A soft brush can help with the mesh. Always allow to air dry.

Is this shoe suitable for running?

The Air Max 95 is primarily a lifestyle sneaker designed for comfort and style. While it offers good cushioning, it is not recommended for rigorous athletic training or running.

What is the inspiration behind the design?

The design, created by Sergio Lozano, is famously inspired by human anatomy, with wavy lines representing muscle fibers, vertebrae, and ribs, and the midsole representing the spine.

How does the velvet material affect care?

The velvet requires gentle cleaning. Avoid excessive moisture and harsh chemicals. A suede brush can help maintain its texture. For stains, specialized velvet cleaners are recommended.

What does 'British Tan Flax Velvet Brown' refer to?

This describes the specific colorway and materials used. 'British Tan' and 'Flax' refer to shades of brown and beige, while 'Velvet Brown' highlights the texture and color of the premium velvet material used on parts of the upper.

Are there other colorways available for the Air Max 95?

Yes, the Nike Air Max 95 has been released in numerous colorways and material combinations over the years. This specific guide focuses on the British Tan Flax Velvet Brown variant.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Wear with appropriate socks. The shoes may require a short break-in period.

Discoloration on velvet material

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Use only specialized cleaners for velvet or suede. Test any cleaning solution on a small, hidden area first.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction within the shoe or between the sole and the insole. Try inserting a powder-free insole or ensuring the existing insole is properly seated. Check for any debris trapped in the sole.

Reduced cushioning effectiveness

The Air Units are designed for long-term cushioning. If cushioning feels significantly reduced, check that there are no leaks (though rare) and consider that materials naturally wear down over extended use.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: For the leather components, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For the mesh, a soft brush with a mild soap and water solution can be used gently. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Velvet Material: The velvet brown sections should be cleaned with utmost care. Use a suede brush or a dry cloth to gently remove surface dust. For stains, a specialized velvet cleaner or a very lightly dampened cloth may be used sparingly, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
  3. Soles: The rubber outsoles can be cleaned with a brush and soapy water. Ensure all soap residue is removed.
  4. Laces: Remove laces and wash them separately by hand or in a laundry bag. Allow to air dry completely.
  5. Drying: Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
