FAQs

What makes the Air Max 97 cushioning unique?

The Air Max 97 features a full-length visible Air-Sole unit that provides unparalleled cushioning and impact protection, contributing to its signature comfort and bouncy feel.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While they offer excellent cushioning for walking and everyday wear, the Air Max 97 Futura is primarily a lifestyle sneaker. For dedicated running, Nike offers specialized running shoe models.

How do I clean the translucent rubber sole?

Use a damp cloth with mild soap and water to gently scrub the sole. A soft brush can help remove tougher grime. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.

What other sizes are available for the Air Max 97 Futura?

This specific listing is for UK size 5. Other available sizes in the 'Platinum Violet Ivory' colorway and similar models include UK 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 7.5, and 8.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The leather upper offers some protection, but these are not waterproof. For heavy rain, consider using a waterproofing spray and avoid prolonged exposure to wet conditions to protect the leather and cushioning.

What is the difference between the Air Max 97 and the Air Max 97 Futura?

The Futura designation often indicates updated design elements or materials compared to the original Air Max 97, offering a contemporary take on the classic silhouette while retaining core features like the Air Max cushioning.

Does the leather require special treatment?

Yes, conditioning the leather periodically with a suitable leather conditioner will help keep it supple and prevent drying or cracking, extending the life and appearance of the sneakers.

Troubleshooting

Leather creasing or scuffing

Minor creases are natural with leather wear. For scuffs, use a leather conditioner or polish suitable for the 'Platinum Violet Ivory' color. Deep scuffs may require professional repair.

Discomfort or poor fit

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the issue persists, consider if the shoe's width or shape is not compatible with your foot. Try wearing with appropriate socks.

Color transfer from darker socks

This can occur with new or dark-colored socks. Ensure socks are colorfast. If color transfer occurs on the shoe's interior, try wiping with a slightly damp cloth and allowing to dry.
