FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for professional basketball games?

While inspired by basketball designs, the Air Flight Lite II Mid is primarily intended as a lifestyle trainer for daily wear.

Does the shoe provide good arch support?

The integrated Nike Air unit and padded footbed provide standard cushioning that offers decent support for everyday walking.

How do I ensure the correct fit?

Refer to the UK sizing provided; since they are made of leather, there will be a slight 'give' after a few days of wear.

Can I replace the insoles?

The insoles are generally removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if preferred.

Are these sneakers water-resistant?

The leather construction provides some protection against light moisture, but they are not waterproof and should be dried naturally if they get wet.

How often should I clean the leather?

For best maintenance, wipe down the exterior after heavy use to prevent dirt from settling into the leather pores.

Troubleshooting

The shoe feels tight around the midfoot.

Loosen the laces starting from the bottom eyelets and adjust the tongue padding for a more customized fit.

The leather upper is showing minor scuffs.

Use a leather cleaner specifically formulated for athletic sneakers or a soft cloth with mild soap to gently buff out surface marks.

Traction feels slippery on wet surfaces.

Wipe the outsole with a dry cloth to remove any buildup of floor wax or dust that may be affecting the rubber grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  • Sizing: These shoes are designed in standard adult male sizing; ensure you select the appropriate UK size for your foot profile.
  • Breaking In: New leather footwear often requires a period of wear to soften the leather and mold the inner padding to your foot shape.
  • Cleaning: To maintain the finish, use a soft, damp cloth for the leather upper. Avoid machine washing, which can damage the glue and leather texture.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or color fading over time.
  • Traction: Regularly check the rubber outsole for trapped debris or pebbles that may affect your grip.
