FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While originally designed as performance runners in the 90s, current versions are better suited for lifestyle use, walking, and casual wear.
Do Nike Air Max 90s run true to size?
Yes, they generally run true to size. If you prefer a wider fit or like wearing thick socks, you may consider going up half a size.
Can I wash these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as the heat and agitation can damage the leather and the Air unit seal.
What is the purpose of the visible air bubble?
The Air unit is pressurized gas inside a flexible film, providing lightweight cushioning that compresses upon impact to absorb shock.
How long should a pair of Air Max 90s last?
With proper care and regular rotation, the construction is designed to last for a significant period of heavy, daily use.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The leather upper provides some resistance to light moisture, but they are not waterproof and should be kept away from heavy rain or submersion.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
Loosen the laces significantly and wear thinner socks during the first few days to allow the leather upper to stretch and conform to your foot.
Creasing appearing on the leather
This is normal for leather footwear; using cedar shoe trees when not in use can help maintain the shape and minimize deep creases.
Difficulty cleaning white leather
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a mixture of water and a very small amount of mild dish soap, followed by a dry cloth to prevent water spots.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Max 90 trainers remain in top condition, follow these steps:
- Breaking In: Wear the shoes for short intervals indoors for the first few days to allow the leather to soften to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the outsole. For leather surfaces, wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid submerging them in water or using harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking and the colours from fading.
- Maintenance: Regularly check the laces and ensure the visible Air unit remains free of debris to maintain its aesthetic and functional integrity.
