FAQs

What is the primary material of the Nike Air More Uptempo '96?

The primary material for the upper of the Nike Air More Uptempo '96 is leather, offering a premium feel and durability.

How does the 'AIR' branding affect the shoe?

The prominent 'AIR' branding is a key design element that provides a bold, retro aesthetic. It does not alter the shoe's functional performance but significantly contributes to its visual impact.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the shoes feature Air cushioning for comfort, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers for everyday wear and fashion. They are not optimized for high-impact running activities.

How should I clean the Rough Green colorway?

Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher stains on the leather, a mild leather cleaner is recommended. Avoid soaking the shoes.

What does '96' in the name refer to?

The '96' in the name typically refers to the year the original Air More Uptempo model was released or gained significant popularity, highlighting its retro heritage.

Can I find this shoe in other colors?

Yes, the Nike Air More Uptempo series is available in various colorways, though the specific 'Rough Green' mentioned might be a limited release. Check for other available options.

What is the fit like for the Nike Air More Uptempo '96?

The fit is generally considered true to size for most individuals. However, due to its design, some users might prefer to wear them with thinner socks. It's always recommended to try them on if possible.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear with thin socks initially. If still tight, consider using a shoe stretcher or breaking them in with short periods of wear.

Laces are difficult to tie securely

Ensure the laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets. Try a different lacing technique or replace the laces if they are worn out.

Squeaking noise during walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or on the tongue area.

Uneven wear on the sole

Ensure you are walking with a neutral gait. Consistent uneven wear might indicate an underlying fit issue or a need for professional advice.

Compatibility: Designed for adult male foot sizes, the UK 6 size fits as specified. They are compatible with casual attire.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt. For stubborn marks, use a mild leather cleaner.
  2. Lining: The inner lining can be spot-cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid soaking the shoe.
  3. Sole: Clean the rubber sole with a brush and water. Ensure all dirt is removed to maintain traction.
  4. Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the leather. Stuffing with paper can help maintain shape during drying.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box to protect them from dust and damage.
