FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The Nike Air Max 90 Trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle wear and light athletic activities. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for the demands of marathon running and may not provide the specialized support and responsiveness required.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the Nike sizing chart available on the Nike website or consult the product's specific sizing information. It is recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the provided measurements for the most accurate fit.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the materials offer some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage to the materials and maintain comfort.

What is the main benefit of the visible Air unit?

The visible Max Air unit in the heel provides exceptional cushioning, absorbing impact effectively, enhancing energy return, and helping to maintain the shoe's shape over time.

How often should I clean my Air Max 90 Trainers?

Clean your trainers as needed, especially after heavy use or exposure to dirt. Regular light cleaning with a soft brush or cloth will help maintain their appearance and longevity.

What is the difference between these and other Air Max models?

The Air Max 90 is distinct for its specific 1990s design aesthetic and its visible Air unit placement. Other Air Max models might feature different design eras, different Air unit technologies, or varying levels of cushioning and support tailored for specific activities.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or loose

Adjust the lacing system. Ensure laces are evenly tensioned. If the issue persists, consider the fit based on foot width and length; consult sizing guides for the best fit.

Discomfort in the heel area

Ensure the heel collar is properly padded and the shoe is laced securely but not overly tight. Break-in period may be required for new shoes.

Visible Air unit appears deflated or damaged

Inspect for punctures or leaks. If damaged, the cushioning may be compromised. Contact Nike customer support for potential warranty claims or replacement options.

Squeaking noise during walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components or trapped moisture. Ensure the insoles are dry and properly seated. Try using a small amount of talcum powder inside the shoe.
