Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this shoe suitable for running?
The Air Kukini is designed for casual athletic wear and light activity. It is not recommended for high-performance, long-distance running.
How do I clean the neoprene upper?
Spot clean with a soft cloth and mild soapy water, then allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
While the materials are quick-drying, they are not waterproof; avoid deep puddles to keep your feet dry.
Does the plastic cage stretch over time?
The cage is designed to maintain its shape to provide structural support, so it offers limited stretch compared to the fabric parts of the shoe.
What is the best way to store the Air Kukini?
Keep them in a cool, dry environment. Avoid leaving them in a hot car, as high heat can damage the air cushioning unit and adhesive bonds.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty putting the shoe on
Ensure the heel tab is pulled fully during entry; the neoprene requires a moment to stretch over the heel cup.
Dirt stuck in the rubber treads
Use a specialized sneaker brush or a dry toothbrush to gently dislodge debris from the grooves of the outsole.
Visible scuffs on the plastic cage
Use a microfiber cloth with a small amount of non-abrasive cleaner to gently buff away surface marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the Nike Air Kukini utilizes a slip-on design, there is no traditional lacing to manage, ensuring a consistent fit right out of the box. To maintain the condition of the Cream Grey fabric, it is recommended to spot clean the neoprene upper using a soft cloth, mild soap, and water. Avoid submerging the shoes in a washing machine, as this can degrade the bonding between the plastic cage and the fabric. For the rubber outsole, use a stiff-bristled brush to remove trapped dirt or debris from the treads to ensure maximum grip. Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the neoprene from fading or the plastic components from becoming brittle over time.
