FAQs
What is the primary design inspiration for the Air Max 90 Drift?
The Air Max 90 Drift is rooted in the running culture of the early '90s, combining a bold attitude with a timeless design that nods to its heritage.
Are these trainers suitable for professional running?
While inspired by running heritage, the Air Max 90 Drift is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. For professional running, Nike offers specialized performance footwear.
How do I clean the Waffle outsole?
Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water to clean the Waffle outsole. Ensure it is dry before storing or wearing.
What does 'visible Air cushioning' mean?
It refers to the Air unit in the midsole, which is visible through a window or cutout, providing both aesthetic appeal and cushioning.
What is the benefit of the padded collar?
The padded collar enhances comfort around the ankle and provides a more secure, snug fit.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the materials offer some protection, these are not waterproof. It is recommended to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to maintain their condition.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking sound from sole
This can sometimes occur due to moisture between layers. Ensure shoes are dry and try walking on different surfaces to see if the sound persists. A light dusting of talcum powder under the insole might help.
Discoloration of grey upper
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap as per care instructions. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first.
Reduced cushioning feel
The foam and Air unit are designed for durability. If cushioning feels less responsive, ensure the shoes are clean and dry. For persistent issues, consider if the shoes have reached the end of their typical lifespan for optimal comfort.
