FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Air Kukini is intended for casual lifestyle wear and does not offer the necessary stability or support for running.
How should I choose the right size?
The Air Kukini generally fits true to size, but the snug fit of the webbing may feel tighter than traditional lace-up shoes.
Are the laces functional?
The Air Kukini does not have traditional laces; the webbed overlay acts as the primary structure to secure the foot.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the synthetic webbing and internal cushioning components. Manual cleaning is best.
Is the Bright Cactus colourway limited edition?
The Bright Cactus colourway is a signature look for this series, though availability can vary based on production cycles.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty getting the shoe on
Ensure the webbed overlay is fully loosened and pull on the heel tab rather than the overlay itself to prevent overstretching.
Feeling of the webbed overlay being too tight
The material may need time to break in; wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the synthetic webbing to adapt to your foot shape.
Accumulation of debris inside the webbing
Use a compressed air canister or a soft dry brush to dislodge particles trapped between the overlay and the base shoe.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Highly specific style may not suit all fashion preferences

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the Air Kukini is a slip-on trainer, 'setup' is minimal; simply slide your foot into the collar and ensure the webbed overlay is evenly distributed across the top of your foot. Regarding care, the synthetic materials respond best to gentle cleaning. Use a soft-bristled brush or a damp cloth with mild soap to remove surface dirt from the mesh and the webbed overlay. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the elasticity of the synthetic components. Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to maintain the shape and longevity of the materials.
