FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the materials and the glue bonding. It is recommended to clean them by hand.
How do I choose the right size?
The Air Force 1 typically fits true to size, but we recommend measuring your child's foot with a standard ruler to ensure a proper fit.
Are these suitable for sports?
While they were originally designed for basketball, they are now categorized primarily as lifestyle trainers and are best for casual and light athletic use.
Do they provide good arch support?
They offer a stable platform with standard foam and air cushioning, which provides moderate support for most children.
What is the best way to keep the black colour looking new?
Regularly wiping them clean and using a black leather conditioner or polish can help restore the depth of the colour.
Troubleshooting
Creasing at the toe box
Creasing is a natural result of movement in leather-style footwear; using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain the shape.
Stiff fit upon first wear
Wear the trainers for short periods indoors to allow the material to soften and adapt to the foot shape.
Stubborn scuff marks
Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a gentle leather cleaner designed for black footwear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Air Force 1 trainers last, keep them away from harsh chemical cleaners that might strip the material finish. For day-to-day care, wipe down the exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. If the laces become soiled, remove them and soak them in warm soapy water. When storing, keep the shoes in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the material from fading or becoming brittle. Ensure you check the sizing guide, as AF1s often have a structured fit that differs from lightweight running shoes.
