FAQs
Are the Nike Air Force 1 Low true to size?
Generally, Nike Air Force 1s fit true to size for most individuals. However, it's always recommended to check customer reviews or try them on if possible, as foot shape can vary.

How durable is the patent leather finish?
The patent leather is durable for everyday wear but can be susceptible to creasing and scratching if subjected to rough use or impact.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on patent leather
This is a natural characteristic of patent leather. To minimize, ensure proper fit and avoid overly tight lacing. Clean gently with a damp cloth.
Discoloration of the red leather
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean with a damp cloth and store in a dark, cool place when not in use.
Squeaking sound
This can sometimes occur between the tongue and laces or due to moisture. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the tongue or ensuring all parts are dry.
Poor grip on wet surfaces
While the outsole provides good traction, rubber soles can be less effective on very wet or slippery surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: For the patent leather, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and smudges. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the finish.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally. Stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.

- Scuffs: Minor scuffs on patent leather can sometimes be buffed out with a specialized patent leather cleaner or a soft cloth.
