FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the Nike Air Max 90 Drift generally fits true to standard UK sizing for adults.

Can I use these for running?

While based on performance heritage, these are intended for casual lifestyle use rather than professional or long-distance running.

How do I remove mud from the waffle outsole?

Allow the mud to dry completely, then use a stiff-bristle brush to knock the debris out of the grooves.

Is the material waterproof?

The leather upper is water-resistant but not waterproof. Avoid wearing in heavy rain to protect the leather material.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are removable if you prefer to use custom orthotic inserts.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the leather toe box

Use a shoe tree when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the structure and minimize deep creases.

Visible dirt on the midsole

Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a melamine sponge (magic eraser) gently to remove scuffs from the rubber midsole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Air Max 90 Drift trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Break-in Period: Wear them for short durations indoors for the first few days to allow the leather and padding to mold to your foot shape.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristle brush to remove dry dirt from the outsole. For the leather upper, wipe down with a slightly damp cloth and mild soap; avoid soaking the leather as it may crack.
  3. Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight, which can fade the grey and black tones of the leather over time.
  4. Compatibility: These trainers feature a neutral grey and black color scheme, making them highly compatible with jeans, joggers, or casual shorts.
