FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, machine washing can damage the leather and the integrity of the adhesive. Stick to hand cleaning with a damp cloth.

Are these suitable for sports?

While they feature heritage basketball roots, they are intended as lifestyle trainers for casual use rather than specialized athletic competition.

How do I know if the size 5.5 fits correctly?

There should be roughly a thumb's width of space between the end of the longest toe and the front of the shoe.

What is the purpose of the holes in the toe box?

The perforations are there to provide ventilation, allowing air to circulate inside the shoe to keep feet dry.

Can I wear these in the rain?

They are made of leather and are water-resistant to a degree, but heavy rain may damage the material over time. Avoid prolonged exposure to deep puddles.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the toe box

Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather footwear. You can minimize it by using shoe trees when not in use.

Shoes feel tight

Ensure laces are properly adjusted to distribute pressure evenly; if they remain tight, they may require a thinner sock or a different size.

Sole grip is slippery

If the rubber sole collects dust or debris, wipe the underside with a damp cloth to restore original traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Air Force 1 trainers last as long as possible, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  1. Initial Protection: Before the first wear, apply a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray to help protect against elements.
  2. Routine Cleaning: Use a soft brush or a dry cloth to remove loose dirt from the surface after each use.
  3. Spot Cleaning: If the leather becomes stained, wipe it gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes in water.
  4. Air Drying: Always let your shoes air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack.
  5. Fit Check: Ensure the size 5.5 UK fit allows for a small amount of wiggle room for the toes to accommodate growth and thick socks.
