FAQs
What material are the Nike Air Max 97 SE trainers made of?
These trainers feature a leather upper construction, providing durability and a premium feel.
What is the main benefit of the Nike Air Max 97 SE?
The primary benefit is the full-length Max Air cushioning, offering excellent comfort and shock absorption.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For stains, use a mild leather cleaner sparingly and avoid abrasive materials.
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
While they offer good cushioning for everyday comfort and light activity, they are primarily designed for casual wear and light athletic use, not high-performance long-distance running.
What does 'SE' stand for in Nike Air Max 97 SE?
SE typically stands for 'Special Edition', indicating unique colorways or material combinations compared to the standard model.
How can I ensure the best fit?
Make sure to select your correct UK shoe size. The lacing system allows for adjustment, but an accurate initial size is crucial for comfort.
What is the inspiration behind the design?
The iconic wavy lines are inspired by Japanese bullet trains and water ripples, reflecting speed and fluidity.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing significantly
Creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Stuffing the shoes with paper when not in use can help maintain shape.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free of debris. For added grip on very smooth surfaces, consider a specific shoe grip spray or re-tread solutions if wear is significant.
Discomfort from the Air unit
Ensure the correct size is being worn. If the discomfort persists, it might be due to the unique feel of the full-length Air unit, which takes some getting used to. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in.
