Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air More Uptempo sneakers maintain their appearance, follow these care guidelines. Since these sneakers feature a mostly white upper, it is recommended to use a soft-bristled brush and mild soap to spot-clean any surface stains immediately. Avoid putting these shoes in the washing machine, as the heat and agitation can damage the adhesive and the Air unit. When storing, keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the white material from yellowing. For sizing, the model fits true to standard adult UK dimensions; if you prefer a looser fit for thick socks, you may consider a half-size increase.
