FAQs

Are the Nike Air Max 90s true to size?

Most users find that the Air Max 90 fits true to size. If you prefer a looser fit or typically wear thick socks, some find sizing up half a size comfortable.

Can I use these for running?

While originally designed for running, current Air Max 90s are categorized as lifestyle sneakers. They are best suited for walking and daily casual use rather than intensive athletic training.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Wipe away loose dirt with a dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap or a dedicated leather cleaner, then wipe dry with a clean towel.

Are these shoes suitable for rain?

The leather upper provides better water resistance than fabric models, but they are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided to protect the leather.

How long does the Air cushioning last?

With standard daily wear, the Air cushioning is designed to remain effective for the life of the shoe, provided the outsole is not worn through.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the leather upper

This is a natural occurrence with real leather; using cedar shoe trees when not in use can help maintain the shape and minimize deep creases.

Squeaking sound while walking

Usually caused by friction between the insole and the midsole; removing the insole and sprinkling a light dusting of talcum powder underneath often resolves the issue.

Surface scuffs on the leather

Use a matching black leather polish or cream to buff out minor scuffs and restore the finish of the material.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality leather construction for long-term durability
  • Visible Air cushioning provides proven impact protection
  • Reliable traction provided by the classic rubber Waffle outsole

Cons

  • Leather material is less breathable than mesh variants
  • Slightly heavier feel due to the traditional build
  • May require a short break-in period to achieve maximum comfort

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Air Max 90 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines. As leather footwear, avoid submerging them in water or using harsh industrial detergents. To clean, use a soft cloth or brush to remove surface dirt and treat the leather with a suitable leather cleaner or conditioner periodically to prevent cracking. For storage, keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can deform the foam midsole. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally by stuffing them with paper towels to absorb excess moisture from the inside.
