FAQs
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is made of a glossy, synthetic patent leather.
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
These trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. While they offer good support, they are not specialized sports shoes.
How should I clean the patent leather?
Clean gently with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. A mild soap solution can be used sparingly for tougher marks, followed by wiping with a clean, dry cloth.
What is the main benefit of the Nike Air cushioning?
The Nike Air cushioning provides lightweight, responsive cushioning for all-day comfort and shock absorption.
What does the AF-1 lace lock do?
The AF-1 lace lock is a decorative element that also helps to keep the laces securely in place.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the rubber outsole offers some protection, the patent synthetic leather is not fully waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve the material.
Do these shoes come in other colors?
This specific model, the LV8 Patent Trainer, is presented in Black and White. Other Air Force 1 variations may be available in different colorways.
Troubleshooting
Scuffs on the patent finish
Gently wipe the affected area with a soft, damp cloth. For minor scuffs, a specialized patent leather cleaner or a small amount of petroleum jelly applied with a soft cloth can sometimes help restore shine.
Laces becoming untied frequently
Ensure the laces are securely tied using a double knot. The included AF-1 lace lock can also help keep laces in place.
Discomfort during wear
Verify the correct size has been selected. Ensure laces are adjusted for a comfortable, snug fit without being too tight. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for shorter periods initially.
Reduced grip on slick surfaces
While the rubber outsole provides traction, very slick or wet surfaces may still pose a risk. Clean the outsole regularly to remove any debris that might impair grip.
