Troubleshooting
Uneven fit or discomfort
Ensure the laces are adjusted properly, not too tight or too loose. If the issue persists, verify you have the correct size. Consider using the provided co-branded insoles for personalized comfort.
Squeaking sound during walking
This can sometimes occur with new leather or sole components. Try walking on different surfaces. If the noise is persistent and bothersome, consult with the retailer or Nike customer support.
Scuffs or marks on the leather
Address minor scuffs immediately with a leather conditioner or specialized leather cleaner. For deeper marks, professional leather restoration might be considered.
Traction feels reduced
Clean the G-TEK outsole thoroughly to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that might be compromising grip. Ensure the surface you are walking on is not excessively wet or oily.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These sneakers come ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal fit and comfort.
Compatibility: This model is designed as a lifestyle and casual wear trainer.

Care:
- Cleaning Leather: Gently wipe the leather uppers with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
- Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning if heavily soiled. Hand wash or machine wash in a delicate bag.
- Soles: Clean the rubber outsole with a brush and mild soap to remove dirt and maintain traction.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight to prevent damage to the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and moisture.
