FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they feature Air technology, the Air Max 90 is primarily a casual lifestyle trainer and is not specifically engineered for high-performance long-distance running.
Do they fit true to size?
Yes, most users find the Air Max 90 fits true to size, though the padded collar can make them feel snug initially.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather material and the integrity of the foam midsole. Stick to manual hand cleaning.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed primarily from high-quality, durable leather.
How do I identify the authentic Max Air unit?
The authentic unit is visible through a cutout in the heel midsole and should feel firm but responsive under pressure.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather toe box
Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather footwear. To minimize it, use a shoe tree when the shoes are not being worn.
Difficulty keeping the white leather clean
Use a specialized leather cleaner and protector spray before the first wear to create a barrier against dirt.
Laces coming undone
Ensure a double knot is used, or consider replacing the laces with textured athletic laces that offer better grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are lace-up trainers, ensure you adjust the laces to fit your foot securely before your first use. For maintenance, keep the leather clean by wiping away dust and dirt after each wear using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents. If the soles become dirty, a soft-bristled brush with mild soapy water can be used on the rubber outsoles. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or discolouring over time.
