FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for athletic activities like running or basketball?
While the Nike Air Force 1 Flyknit 2.0 incorporates cushioning and a lightweight design, it is primarily intended as a lifestyle and casual wear shoe. For dedicated high-performance athletic activities, specialized sports footwear is recommended.
How do I choose the correct size?
This particular model is a UK size 16. For the best fit, it's always recommended to consult Nike's official sizing chart or try them on, as Flyknit can offer a slightly different feel than traditional materials.
Can I put my Nike Air Force 1 Flyknit 2.0 in the washing machine?
No, machine washing is strongly advised against. It can damage the delicate Flyknit material, nubuck, adhesives, and the overall structure of the shoe. Always opt for hand cleaning as described in the care instructions.
What is the 'Ultra' construction mentioned in the description?
The 'Ultra' construction, particularly referring to the midsole in this model, signifies a design optimized for significant weight reduction while maintaining durability and the shoe's structural integrity, contributing to its 'lighter than ever' feel.
How often should I clean my shoes?
Cleaning frequency depends on usage and exposure to dirt. For best results, clean them regularly as needed, especially after heavy use or exposure to mud and grime, to prevent dirt from setting into the materials.
Will the white Flyknit get dirty easily?
Like any light-colored footwear, the white Flyknit may show dirt more readily. Regular cleaning and preventative measures, such as avoiding excessively dirty environments, will help maintain its pristine appearance.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable initially.
The Flyknit upper is designed to conform to your foot. Allow a few wears for the material to stretch and adapt to your unique foot shape. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size 16.
Flyknit material appears dirty or stained.
Gently clean the Flyknit using a soft brush (e.g., old toothbrush) with a mixture of mild soap and lukewarm water. Lightly scrub in small circular motions, then wipe clean with a damp cloth and air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Nubuck sections are scuffed or stained.
Use a specialized nubuck brush or eraser for dry dirt and scuffs. For stains, apply a small amount of dedicated nubuck cleaner to a clean cloth and gently blot the area, then brush. Always test in an inconspicuous spot first.
Squeaking sound coming from the sole while walking.
This can sometimes occur if there's moisture or friction between the insole and the main sole. Remove the insoles, clean both surfaces, ensure they are completely dry, and reinsert them. If the issue persists, consider replacing the insoles.

Care Instructions
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your shoes:
- General Cleaning: For superficial dirt, wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a mild shoe cleaner specifically designed for sneakers.
- Cleaning Flyknit: Gently scrub the Flyknit upper with a soft brush (like a toothbrush) using a mixture of mild soap and lukewarm water. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning Nubuck: Use a specialized nubuck brush or eraser to remove dry dirt and scuffs. For stains, a dedicated nubuck cleaner applied sparingly on a clean cloth may be used. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.
- Drying: Always allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, direct sunlight, hairdryers) as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation and discoloration. Shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Machine washing is not recommended as it can severely damage the delicate Flyknit, nubuck, and the shoe's structural integrity.
