FAQs

Is this shoe suitable for long-distance running?

While it features performance cushioning, the Air Max 97 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual trainer rather than a dedicated high-mileage running shoe.

How should I clean the white leather portions?

Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft cloth with mild soapy water, then wipe dry immediately with a clean towel.

Does the sizing run true?

The Air Max 97 generally fits true to size, but the sleek, low-cut design may feel snug for those with wider feet.

Can I remove the insole?

The insoles are typically removable if you need to insert custom orthotics for additional arch support.

Is the Air Max unit prone to popping?

The Air Max unit is made of high-strength, pressurized material designed for durability under normal daily use.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on mesh upper

Use a soft-bristled brush with a gentle cleaning solution, scrubbing lightly to avoid fraying the mesh fibers.

Creasing in the leather toe box

Use a shoe tree when not in use to help the shoe maintain its shape and minimize permanent crease formation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your shoes remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, wear them for shorter durations initially to allow the leather to conform to your foot.
  2. Cleaning: Wipe the leather and mesh surfaces with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes in water to protect the integrity of the Air Max unit adhesive.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the white material from yellowing.
  4. Maintenance: Regularly inspect the tread for lodged debris to maintain optimal traction.
