FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Air Flight 89 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual trainer, not for high-intensity running or sports performance.
Do these fit true to size?
Generally, these follow standard Nike sizing, but because of the structured design, many users find them to be a standard fit that requires minimal adjustment.
How do I clean the white sections?
Use a gentle leather cleaner or a damp cloth with mild soap, wiping in a circular motion to remove dirt without damaging the surface.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, you can remove the existing insoles to replace them with custom orthotics or third-party cushioning inserts if needed.
Are these trainers water-resistant?
They are not specifically waterproof, so it is recommended to avoid heavy rain to maintain the longevity of the materials.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the toe box area
This is a natural characteristic of leather footwear; use a shoe tree when not wearing to maintain the shape and minimize deep creases.
Laces coming untied frequently
Ensure you are using a double knot or checking that the laces are pulled evenly across all eyelets for a secure, balanced tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Flight 89 trainers last, follow these care guidelines: Always loosen the laces fully before taking the shoes off to maintain the shape of the heel counter. If the shoes become dirty, spot clean the leather or synthetic upper using a soft cloth and a mild soap solution; avoid soaking the shoes or putting them in a washing machine, as this can degrade the adhesive and materials. For best results, use a specialized sneaker cleaning kit and air dry them away from direct heat sources to prevent material cracking or warping.
