FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the Air Max TL 2.5 generally fits true to standard adult sizing. If you prefer a looser fit or wear thick socks, consider a half-size up.

Can I use these for running?

While they feature cushioning that is comfortable for walking, they are primarily lifestyle trainers and are not specifically engineered for high-performance long-distance running.

How do I remove stains from the mesh?

Use a mild detergent mixed with water and a soft-bristled brush. Gently scrub the mesh and pat dry with a microfiber towel.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, the insoles are typically removable if you need to insert custom orthotics for additional arch support.

Is the leather real or synthetic?

The product construction utilizes a blend of textiles and synthetic overlays to achieve the classic look while maintaining durability.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound while walking

This often occurs due to friction between the insole and the shoe interior. Try removing the insole and dusting a small amount of talcum powder underneath.

Creasing on the synthetic overlays

Use a shoe tree when the trainers are not being worn to help the materials retain their shape and minimize deep creases.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Iconic, high-energy 90s visual design
  • Excellent energy return from full-length cushioning
  • Breathable material keeps feet ventilated
  • Sturdy construction for longevity

Cons

  • Leather overlays may feel stiff initially
  • Design is more lifestyle-focused than performance sport-focused
  • Limited water resistance due to mesh components

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are standard lace-up trainers, ensure you adjust the lacing system to accommodate your specific foot width for a secure fit. For care, wipe down the synthetic and leather overlays with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the internal components and the glue bonds. If the mesh gets dusty, use a soft-bristled brush to clear out debris from the pores. For long-term storage, keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the midsole foam from degrading or the materials from fading.
