FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the Air Max 90 series began as performance running shoes, the Drift model is primarily intended for lifestyle and casual use.
How should I store them to keep the leather in good shape?
Store them in a ventilated area, away from high heat or direct sunlight, ideally using a shoe tree to maintain their form.
Is the material waterproof?
The leather is water-resistant, but not fully waterproof. It is best to avoid deep puddles or heavy rain to protect the leather.
Do these shoes run true to size?
They generally follow standard sizing, but because they are made of leather, they may feel snug at first compared to fabric shoes.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the provided insoles can be removed if you require custom orthotics or specific arch support.
What is the primary material used?
The exterior features high-quality leather for a durable and classic look.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight across the top of the foot
Loosen the laces starting from the bottom eyelets to reduce pressure on the midfoot.
Creasing appearing on the leather upper
This is a natural occurrence with leather; using a shoe tree when not in use can help maintain the shape and reduce permanent creasing.
Difficulty cleaning the Air unit
Use a cotton swab with a tiny amount of mild soapy water to clean around the edges of the visible Air unit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Max 90 Drift shoes last as long as possible, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the leather to soften to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the finish.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading and leather cracking.
- Maintenance: If the midsole or outsole becomes muddy, use a soft-bristled brush to scrub debris away carefully.
