FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Air Kukini is primarily designed for casual wear and daily activity, rather than long-distance running or professional sports.
What is the sizing like for these trainers?
The Air Kukini generally follows standard Nike sizing, but due to the snug fit of the webbing, ensure you select your correct UK size.
Can I wash these in the washing machine?
Machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the specialized web overlay and adhesive components.
Is the web overlay purely aesthetic?
No, the overlay serves to provide structural integrity and a secure, glove-like fit across the midfoot.
Are these unisex?
This specific variant is marketed for men; however, the design is highly versatile for anyone who fits the available sizing.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty getting the shoe on
Ensure the heel tab is fully utilized to pull the shoe on; the snug fit is intentional for support.
Fabric looks dull after use
Use a soft brush to remove dust and a lightly dampened cloth to restore the vibrancy of the blue fabric.
