FAQs
Is this shoe suitable for long-distance running?
While it features Air cushioning, it is primarily designed for agility and casual use; dedicated running shoes may offer better support for long-distance endurance.
Does the cage stretch over time?
The plastic cage is designed for structural support and will maintain its shape, while the neoprene upper will conform slightly to your foot's shape.
Can these be worn without socks?
Yes, the neoprene-like upper is designed to be comfortable against the skin, making it suitable for sockless wear in casual settings.
How do I ensure the correct fit?
The Air Kukini fits true to size, but given the cage design, those with wider feet may consider sizing up by a half-size for optimal comfort.
Are they waterproof?
They are quick-drying and resistant to light moisture, but they are not fully waterproof or submersible.
How should I store them to prevent damage?
Keep them in a temperature-controlled environment and avoid leaving them in direct sun, which can yellow white materials or degrade plastic.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty getting the shoe on
Ensure the foot is relaxed and push firmly through the heel area; the neoprene material will stretch to accommodate your foot size.
Feeling pressure at the midfoot
Loosen the lacing system if applicable, or wear thinner socks to reduce the volume inside the cage.
Dirt stuck in the cage
Use a small, soft brush or a pressurized air canister to dislodge particles from between the cage and the shoe upper.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The Air Kukini utilizes a slip-on design that simplifies the putting-on process; simply ensure the heel is properly seated against the Air unit during entry. Because of the synthetic materials, care is straightforward: use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry debris from the outsole and a damp cloth with mild soap to spot-clean the neoprene upper. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can damage the integrity of the plastic cage and adhesive bonds. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the elasticity of the upper material.
