FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While rooted in running heritage, the modern Air Max 90 is designed primarily as a lifestyle and casual trainer rather than a high-performance long-distance running shoe.

How do I clean white leather trainers?

Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a mild soap solution with a soft cloth to gently wipe the leather surface, avoiding harsh chemicals.

Can I remove the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to swap them for custom orthotics if required.

Do Air Max 90s run true to size?

They are generally considered true to size, though the leather material can feel snug for those with wider feet.

Is the Air unit prone to popping?

The Air unit is highly durable and integrated within the midsole; it is extremely unlikely to pop under normal walking or casual usage conditions.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the leather toe box

Natural creasing is expected with leather shoes; use a shoe tree when not in use to help maintain the shape.

Squeaking sound while walking

This is often caused by moisture trapped under the insole; remove the insole and allow it to dry thoroughly.

Stiffness during the first few wears

Wear the shoes for short durations indoors to gradually soften the leather before extended outdoor use.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior impact protection via the Max Air heel unit
  • Durable, high-quality leather material
  • Iconic design that remains versatile for various outfits
  • Stable and supportive fit for everyday use
  • Reliable grip provided by the Waffle rubber outsole

Cons

  • Leather construction may feel stiff initially
  • Low-top design offers less ankle support than mid or high-top models
  • White-based colorways require frequent cleaning to maintain appearance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Air Max 90s stay in top condition, proper maintenance is essential. For sizing, these shoes generally follow standard UK sizing; however, since they feature a structured leather build, some users prefer a half-size adjustment if they have wider feet.

Care Instructions:

  1. Surface Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush or a damp microfiber cloth to remove surface dirt and debris after use.
  2. Leather Treatment: Apply a leather-safe cleaner or conditioner to maintain the suppleness of the upper and prevent cracking.
  3. Avoid Submersion: Never machine wash your trainers; submersion can compromise the adhesive bonds and the integrity of the Air unit.
  4. Air Drying: Always air dry in a cool, shaded area away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the materials.
