Care & Maintenance
Proper care extends the life and appearance of your Nike Air Max Waffle shoes:
- Cleaning the Upper (Mesh & Suede):
- Brush off loose dirt with a soft brush (a toothbrush works well for mesh).
- For mesh areas, gently wipe with a cloth dampened with mild soap and water.
- For suede areas, use a dedicated suede cleaner and brush, following product instructions. Avoid excessive moisture on suede.
- Blot dry with a clean cloth.
- Use a brush or an old toothbrush with mild soap and water to scrub the rubber sole and Visible Air Max unit.
- Wipe clean with a damp cloth.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can damage materials. Stuffing them with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Shoe trees can help maintain their shape when not in use.
- Avoid Washing Machine: Do not put your Nike Air Max Waffle shoes in a washing machine or dryer, as this can severely damage the materials and construction.
