FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The Nike Air Kukini generally fits true to size, but the webbed design provides a snug, sock-like feel.
Can I use these for marathon running?
These trainers are better suited for casual wear and light athletic activity rather than long-distance endurance running.
How do I clean the cream-colored areas?
Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a mild detergent solution applied with a microfiber cloth, scrubbing gently.
Is the webbed cage durable?
The cage is designed for durability under normal conditions, but avoid snagging it on sharp objects to prevent tearing.
Do I need to tie laces?
No, the Air Kukini is a slip-on model that relies on the elastic webbing for its fit.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, you can remove the existing insoles to replace them with custom orthotics if preferred.
Troubleshooting
The webbed overlay feels too tight
Wear the shoes with thinner socks to allow the mesh and web to adjust to your foot volume.
Dirt stuck in the web structure
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently dislodge debris from the webbing without pulling on the synthetic cage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the Air Kukini features a slip-on design with a webbed cage, no complex setup is required; simply ensure your foot is centered as you slide it into the collar. For care, avoid machine washing these trainers, as the delicate mesh and adhesive components can be compromised. Instead, spot clean the exterior with a soft cloth and mild soap. If the shoes become damp, air-dry them away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping or adhesive degradation.
