FAQs

Is the Nike Air Max 97 SE good for running?

While the shoe features Air Max cushioning, this 'SE' variant is primarily designed as a lifestyle sneaker for casual, everyday wear rather than performance running.

How should I clean the suede upper?

Use a dry, soft-bristled brush. Never put these shoes in a washing machine, as the suede material and chrome pins can be damaged by water and agitation.

What is the sizing like for this model?

The Air Max 97 usually fits true to size. If you prefer a slightly roomier fit, some users opt to go up a half size, but standard sizing is generally recommended.

Can I remove the chrome Swoosh pins?

The chrome Swoosh pins are integrated design elements. It is recommended to leave them attached to avoid damaging the surrounding suede fabric.

How do I protect the suede from moisture?

Applying a professional-grade suede protector spray immediately after purchase will create a barrier against light moisture and dirt.

Troubleshooting

Visible scuffs on the suede upper

Use a specialized suede eraser and soft brush to gently buff away marks in the direction of the nap.

Creasing in the toe box area

Insert shoe trees when not in use to help the material retain its shape and minimize permanent creases.

Dirt buildup on the Air unit

Wipe the clear plastic air unit with a damp microfiber cloth to remove dust and prevent clouding.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Iconic full-length Air cushioning system
  • High-quality suede material feels premium
  • Unique 'Running Club' branding and chrome details
  • Classic Air Max 97 silhouette fits most casual wardrobes

Cons

  • Suede material is sensitive to water and stains
  • Exposed-foam tongue requires careful handling to prevent fraying
  • Limited to casual use rather than heavy-duty athletic performance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Air Max 97s last, start by using a water-repellent spray specifically formulated for suede before your first wear. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt. Avoid soaking the suede, as this can alter the texture. For the midsole, a damp cloth with mild soap can effectively remove scuffs from the white sections. Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading, and utilize a shoe tree if you wish to maintain the original shape over time.
