FAQs

What are the main materials used in these trainers?

The Nike Air Force 1 Crater Flyknit 'Wolf Grey' features a Flyknit upper made from recycled polyester and a midsole made from Crater foam, which includes Nike's recycled Grind Rubber. The outsole is also made from rubber.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

These trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer cushioning and comfort, they may not provide the specialized support and performance features required for rigorous running activities.

How do I ensure the Flyknit upper stays clean?

Gently wipe the Flyknit upper with a damp cloth. For more stubborn dirt, use a soft brush with a mild soap and water solution. Always allow to air dry.

What does 'Crater' refer to in the midsole?

'Crater' refers to the speckled appearance of the foam, which is made using Nike's recycled Grind Rubber, giving it a unique, contemporary look and contributing to sustainability.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the Flyknit upper is breathable, it is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. For heavy rain, waterproof footwear is recommended.

How do I find other available sizes for this model?

You can check the 'variant_siblings' section in the product information for a list of other available sizes and their corresponding titles, or search for the specific model and size you need.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels incorrect

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the fit is still not right, consider trying a half-size up or down, as Flyknit can offer a flexible fit but may not suit all foot shapes.

Discoloration on the midsole

The Crater foam may have a speckled appearance due to recycled materials. If you notice uneven discoloration, try cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap.

Reduced traction

Check the waffle pattern on the outsole for embedded debris. Clean thoroughly with a brush and water. Ensure the outsole is dry before use.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for general adult use and are compatible with a wide range of casual attire. They are suitable for individuals looking for a blend of style and comfort for everyday activities.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the Flyknit upper with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing. For tougher stains, use a mild soap diluted in water and a soft brush.
  • Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water to clean the Crater foam midsole and rubber outsole. Ensure any dirt from the waffle pattern is removed.
  • Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain color and material integrity.
