FAQs

What are the primary materials used in the Nike Air Max 1 Athletic Department Deep Royal Blue?

The upper is constructed with a white mesh base and features suede overlays in gray and deep royal blue, including a distinct deep royal blue mudguard.

How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a soft suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner is recommended. Avoid saturating the suede with water.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

These trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and daily comfort. While they offer cushioning, they are not specialized for high-impact running activities.

What is the main benefit of the visible Air unit?

The visible Air unit in the midsole provides responsive cushioning, absorbing impact and offering comfort during wear.

What is the purpose of the lugged outsole?

The lugged rubber outsole is designed to provide enhanced traction and durability on various surfaces.

Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?

While the mesh offers breathability, the suede materials are not ideal for wet conditions. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain to preserve the suede's condition.

What does 'Athletic Department' signify in the product name?

The 'Athletic Department' theme often signifies a classic, retro-inspired aesthetic within Nike's collections, drawing from vintage sportswear designs.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight

Ensure you have the correct size. For a slightly snug fit, break-in the shoes by wearing them for short periods initially.

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, consult a specialized suede cleaning guide or product. Avoid using water directly on suede.

Reduced cushioning effect

The Air unit is designed for longevity, but cushioning can feel less pronounced over extended use. Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn. Regular cleaning can also help maintain material integrity.
