FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they feature Air Max cushioning, these trainers are designed for lifestyle and casual wear rather than high-performance running.
How do I check the sizing?
These trainers follow standard adult sizing. Refer to the UK size label on your existing Nike footwear for the best match.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash your Air Max trainers, as this can damage the adhesives and the integrity of the air unit.
What is the primary material?
The upper is constructed from a combination of airy textile mesh and durable synthetic leather overlays.
What does the heel pull tab do?
The pull tab allows you to easily slide your foot into the shoe without crushing the heel counter.
Does the Air Max unit ever go flat?
The pressurized air unit is durable, but like any footwear, it will experience natural wear over time with heavy usage.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt accumulation in the mesh upper
Gently scrub the area with a soft brush and a damp cloth soaked in diluted mild detergent.
Max Air unit looks cloudy
Clean the exterior surface of the air unit with a damp cloth; cloudiness inside the unit is typically a manufacturing characteristic and cannot be fixed.
Unpleasant odors after heavy use
Remove the insoles to air them out separately and use a specialized sneaker deodorizer spray.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best out of your Nike Air Max TL 2.5, ensure you are wearing the correct size to allow the air unit to function as intended under your specific weight distribution. For cleaning, remove loose dirt with a soft-bristled brush. Use a mild soap solution for the mesh and synthetic leather areas, avoiding harsh chemicals that may degrade the materials. Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, as high temperatures can damage the air unit or cause the glue to weaken. Store your shoes in a cool, dry place to prevent yellowing of the air sole.
