FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The Air Max TL 2.5 is designed primarily as a lifestyle and casual trainer. While comfortable, they are not engineered for competitive or long-distance running.

How should I clean the leather upper?

Use a soft, damp cloth with a small amount of mild detergent. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.

Do they fit true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing for adult Nike footwear.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required for additional support.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, while the leather provides some resistance to light rain, they are not fully waterproof and should not be worn in heavy downpours.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the leather toe box

Creasing is a natural characteristic of high-quality leather; use shoe trees when not wearing to help maintain the shape.

Difficulty keeping the shoes clean

Apply a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray regularly to create a protective barrier against dirt.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best fit, ensure you select your standard UK size, as the Air Max TL 2.5 features a consistent sizing profile. To maintain the leather upper, keep the shoes away from excessive moisture and deep mud. If the leather gets dirty, wipe it clean with a damp, lint-free cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or heavy brushes that can strip the finish or damage the leather texture. Always air-dry the shoes naturally at room temperature, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the leather from cracking.
