FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to standard UK sizing, though the padded collar provides a snugger feel than thinner models.
Can I use these for running?
While they provide good cushioning, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers rather than high-performance running shoes.
How do I prevent the white leather from yellowing?
Store the shoes in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight and wipe down regularly to prevent grime buildup.
What is the material used for the upper?
The upper is constructed from high-quality, durable leather.
Are the insoles removable?
Most Air Max 90 models come with a removable insole if you need to swap them for orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Visible scuffs on the leather upper
Gently buff the scuffed area with a soft cloth and a leather-safe cleaning solution.
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure they are laced tightly through the upper eyelets and consider a double knot for a more secure fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Max 90s last, it is essential to focus on proper maintenance. Since the primary construction is leather, use a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt after each wear. For deeper cleans, use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution, avoiding harsh detergents that could strip the finish. Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the leather or damage the air unit. Keep the laces clean by washing them separately in a mesh bag if they become discoloured.
