Nike Air Max 1 Essential - Light Bone/Psychic Blue - UK 14

The shoe features a combination of Light Bone leather and Sanddrift Khaki suede overlays, with white mesh fabric for breathability.

While the Air Max 1 offers comfort and cushioning, they are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle purposes, not high-performance athletic activities.

Use a soft suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner or eraser can be used cautiously. Always allow the shoes to air dry.

The 'Essential' designation typically indicates a focus on core design elements and materials that define the classic model, offering a reliable and timeless version of the Air Max 1.

The visible Air unit, a key innovation from Nike, provides cushioning and shock absorption within the midsole, contributing to the shoe's comfort.

While the leather offers some protection, the mesh and suede components are not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve their material integrity.

The Nike Air Max 1 was originally unveiled in 1987.

This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers. Ensure the shoes are completely dry. If the issue persists, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.

Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For persistent dirt, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully. Ensure the suede is dry before brushing.

The visible Air unit is a sealed component. If it appears damaged or deflated, this may indicate a defect. Contact customer support for assistance, as this is not user-repairable.

Ensure the correct size has been selected. Try wearing them with different types of socks. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, consider consulting a shoe fitter.
