FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the Nike ACG Air Mowabb OG 'Rattan Birch'?

This shoe was originally designed for outdoor activities like rock climbing and strenuous hikes, offering durability and support. It is also popular for casual wear due to its iconic design and comfort.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to Nike's official sizing chart and compare it with your foot measurements. Given the inner bootie construction, some users find they prefer to size up half a size for a more relaxed fit, especially if wearing thicker socks.

Is the 'Rattan Birch' colorway available in other sizes?

Yes, the Nike ACG Air Mowabb OG 'Rattan Birch' has been released in various adult sizes. Please check available listings for specific size options.

Can I wear these shoes in the rain?

The leather upper offers some protection against light moisture. However, they are not fully waterproof. For heavy rain or wet conditions, it is recommended to use a waterproofing spray suitable for leather and neoprene, and to dry the shoes thoroughly afterward.

What is the difference between this 2021 retro and the original ACG Air Mowabb?

The 2021 retro aims to be a faithful reproduction of the original Tinker Hatfield design, maintaining the core materials, color blocking, and construction. Minor updates may exist for manufacturing consistency, but the aesthetic and intended function remain true to the 1991 classic.

How should I clean the speckled midsole?

Use a soft brush or a damp cloth with mild soap and water to gently clean the speckled midsole. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.

What is the warranty on these shoes?

Nike typically offers a limited warranty on their footwear against manufacturing defects. Please refer to Nike's official website or the point of purchase for specific warranty details and duration.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not overtightened, especially around the ankle area. If the issue persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if the neoprene bootie requires a short break-in period.

Slipping on wet surfaces

Ensure the outsole is clean of mud or debris, as this can reduce traction. While designed for grip, extreme wet conditions on polished surfaces may still present challenges. Use caution and ensure a firm footing.

Discomfort during long wear

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. The shoes may also require a short break-in period for the materials to conform to your foot shape. If discomfort continues after several wears, verify the size and fit.

Leather appears dry or cracked

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner designed for athletic footwear to the leather upper. This will help restore moisture and prevent cracking. Do this periodically, especially after exposure to dry conditions.

Care: To maintain the condition of your Nike ACG Air Mowabb OG 'Rattan Birch' shoes:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For stubborn marks, a mild leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the leather.

  3. Midsole and Outsole: Clean the foam midsole and rubber outsole with a brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Ensure all cleaning agents are mild and suitable for footwear materials.
  4. Drying: Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
