FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the Air Max TL 2.5 features cushioning, they are primarily lifestyle trainers intended for casual wear, not performance running.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Use a mild leather-safe cleaner for stains and follow up with a leather conditioner.
Does the size fit true to standard Nike sizing?
Yes, these generally align with standard Nike sizing conventions, but it is always recommended to refer to the UK sizing guide for your specific foot measurements.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather material and degrade the adhesive components of the sole. Stick to manual hand-cleaning methods.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is constructed from durable leather, which provides a premium look and structured fit.
Troubleshooting
Visible scuffs on leather surface
Use a specialized leather eraser or a soft cloth with a small amount of leather conditioner to buff out minor marks.
Outsole collecting debris in the Air unit
Use a gentle stream of water or a soft-bristled toothbrush to carefully dislodge trapped dirt from the Air Max grooves.
Creasing in the leather during wear
Use shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the shape and minimize deep creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Max TL 2.5 trainers last, proper care is essential. Since the upper is crafted from leather, avoid submerging them in water or using harsh industrial cleaners. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush or a damp cloth with mild soap to gently remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, apply a dedicated leather cleaner or conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. When not in use, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the colors over time. To maintain the structural integrity of the padded collars, always untie the laces fully before taking the shoes off rather than forcing your foot out.
