FAQs
Are these sneakers true to size?
The Nike Air Force 1 generally fits true to size, though some users prefer a half-size down if they like a more snug, locked-in feel.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No. Machine washing can damage the leather and the glue bonds. Always clean them by hand using a damp cloth.
Is the leather genuine?
These shoes feature high-quality leather construction designed for durability and a premium look.
Are they suitable for the gym?
While durable, these are lifestyle sneakers. They lack the specific lateral support and breathability required for intense athletic training.
How do I prevent the white midsole from yellowing?
Regularly clean the midsole with a mild soap solution and avoid leaving them in direct sunlight for long periods, which can accelerate oxidation.
Troubleshooting
Creasing at the toe box
This is common with leather sneakers. Use a sneaker shield or shoe tree when not wearing the shoes to minimize deep folds.
Scuff marks on the black leather
Use a black leather polish or a specialized sneaker repair kit to touch up small scuffs and restore the uniform black finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Break-in Period
New leather sneakers may feel slightly stiff out of the box. Wear them for short durations indoors for the first few days to allow the leather to soften and conform to your foot shape.
Care Instructions
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather surface with a damp cloth after each use to remove surface dirt and prevent buildup.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner every few months to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe tree can help maintain the shape and reduce permanent creasing in the toe box.
