Product Information
Full details
The Nike Air Max 90 trainers are designed for adults seeking to blend retro running heritage with everyday style. Their key benefit is the combination of durable, classic aesthetics with modern comfort through visible Air cushioning. A potential caveat is that the focus on heritage design might mean they are less suited for high-intensity athletic performance compared to specialized sports footwear. These trainers feature a textile upper with leather and synthetic overlays for durability, visible Air cushioning for steady comfort, a foam midsole for smooth steps, and a rubber Waffle outsole for reliable grip.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?
While the Nike Air Max 90 offers comfort and cushioning, they are primarily designed for casual wear and heritage style. For marathon running, specialized running shoes with advanced support and cushioning systems would be more appropriate.
How do I know if I have the right size?
It is recommended to measure your foot and compare it to Nike's sizing chart. Trying them on in person, if possible, is the best way to ensure a comfortable fit, as personal preference for tightness can vary.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No, it is not recommended to put Nike Air Max 90 trainers in a washing machine. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and the cushioning unit. Hand washing with mild soap and water is the preferred method for cleaning.
What does 'Visible Air cushioning' mean?
Visible Air cushioning refers to Nike's technology where the air-filled cushioning unit in the sole is exposed and visible through cutouts in the midsole. This provides both shock absorption and a distinctive aesthetic feature.
How often should I clean my Air Max 90s?
Clean your trainers as needed, especially after exposure to dirt or significant wear. Regular spot cleaning and periodic deeper cleaning will help maintain their appearance and longevity.
What is the material of the overlays?
The overlays are typically made of leather and synthetic materials, designed to provide structure, support, and durability to the textile upper.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure laces are loosened before putting on. If still tight, consider wearing thinner socks or breaking them in over shorter periods.
Sole feels flat or lacks cushioning
The cushioning may have compressed over time. Ensure the Air unit is intact and not deflated. Consider replacement if the shoes are heavily worn.
Traction is reduced on wet surfaces
Clean the Waffle outsole to remove any debris. Be cautious when walking on wet surfaces, as the rubber outsole's grip may be compromised.
Discoloration on overlays
Wipe gently with a damp cloth. For stubborn stains on leather, use a dedicated leather cleaner sparingly.

Compatibility: The Nike Air Max 90 is designed for general adult use. It is compatible with standard sock wear and suitable for most everyday activities.
Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: For textile areas, use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water. For leather and synthetic overlays, wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water to remove dirt. For stubborn marks on the midsole, a magic eraser can be used gently.
