FAQs

What is the primary material of the Nike Air Max 97 'Black Anthracite Picante'?

The primary material is leather, providing a premium look and durable construction.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While they offer comfortable cushioning, the Air Max 97 is primarily designed as a lifestyle or casual sneaker, not for high-impact athletic training like running.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Gently wipe the leather with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a dedicated leather cleaner and follow up with a conditioner.

What does 'Black Anthracite Picante' refer to?

This refers to the specific colorway. 'Black Anthracite' is the main color, with 'Picante' suggesting subtle accents, often red, though not explicitly detailed in the provided description.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

They can withstand light moisture, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended for the leather material. Ensure they are dried properly if they get wet.

What is the main benefit of the full-length Air unit?

The full-length visible Air unit provides excellent cushioning and shock absorption for comfortable all-day wear.

Are there other color options available?

Yes, the Nike Air Max 97 series is available in various colorways and collaborations. Specific options can be found by checking other available product variants.

Troubleshooting

Laces becoming untied frequently

Try double-knotting the laces or consider replacing them with laces that offer better grip.

Leather showing scuffs or creases

Use a leather cleaner and conditioner to address minor marks. For deeper scuffs, professional leather restoration may be needed.

Squeaking noise when walking

This can sometimes occur due to the sole or internal cushioning. Ensure the shoe is dry and try inserting talcum powder under the insole if accessible.
