FAQs

What does PRM stand for?

PRM typically stands for 'Premium', indicating that the shoe uses higher-grade materials and construction compared to standard releases.

How do I clean the suede material?

Use a suede brush for regular cleaning and a specialized suede cleaner for stains. Always test cleaners on a small, hidden area first and avoid soaking the material.

What is the 'Ugly Duckling' collection?

The 'Ugly Duckling' is a nickname for a collection of Nike Air Max 1 releases that feature earthy tones and distinctive color blocking, originally inspired by the fairytale. The Duck Anthracite is part of this theme.

Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?

While the Nike Air Max 1 features Air cushioning for comfort, it is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual wear sneaker, not for high-impact athletic activities.

What is the best way to store these sneakers?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, ideally in their original box or a breathable shoe bag to maintain their condition.

What year did the Nike Air Max 1 PRM Duck Anthracite release?

The Nike Air Max 1 PRM Duck Anthracite made its debut on December 20th, 2022.

Can I wear these shoes in the rain?

It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in wet conditions, as moisture can damage the material and affect its appearance. If they get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from heat.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears scuffed or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, consult a specialized suede cleaner and test on an inconspicuous area first.

Color transfer from suede

This can sometimes occur with dyed suede, especially when wet. Ensure the shoes are dry before wear and avoid contact with light-colored fabrics when damp. Consider using a suede protector spray.

Laces are discolored

Remove the laces and hand wash them with mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing.

Outsole has dirt buildup

Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth. For tougher grime, use a soft brush and mild soap, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.

Care:

To maintain the premium appearance of the suede and colors:
