FAQs

Are these sneakers suitable for running?

While the Air Max cushioning provides comfort, the Air Max 97 OG is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual wear sneaker, not specialized for running.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The sneaker should feel snug but not tight. There should be a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. Refer to Nike's sizing chart for detailed measurements.

How should I care for the reflective stripes?

Gently wipe the reflective stripes with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the reflective coating.

Can I wear these in wet conditions?

The leather upper offers some resistance, but it is not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or puddles to protect the materials and maintain comfort.

What is the significance of the 'OG' in the name?

'OG' stands for 'Original Gangster' and typically refers to the original or a retro release of a classic design, like this 'Atlantic Blue' colorway.

Are these unisex?

While listed as men's sizing, the design is often worn by individuals of any gender. It's recommended to check the sizing conversion charts for accurate fit.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Wear with appropriate socks. The leather may require a break-in period.

Dirt or scuff marks on the upper

Clean gently with a soft brush and a damp cloth. For leather areas, use a dedicated leather cleaner following product instructions.

Reduced reflectivity

Ensure the reflective stripes are clean. Dirt can obscure the reflective material. Clean gently with a damp cloth.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains on leather, use a leather cleaner sparingly with a damp cloth. Avoid soaking the material.
