FAQs

What does ACG stand for?

ACG stands for 'All Conditions Gear', Nike's line of apparel and footwear designed for outdoor use and varying weather conditions.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The shoes are designed to be water-resistant due to the leather upper and neoprene bootie, offering protection against light rain and puddles. However, they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in water.

What is the best way to break in these shoes?

Wear them around the house for short periods with the socks you intend to use them with. Gradually increase the duration of wear. The neoprene bootie might feel snug initially but should conform to your foot over time.

Can I wear these for running?

While they offer good cushioning, these shoes are primarily designed for hiking and walking. They lack the specific support and flexibility typically found in dedicated running shoes.

What size should I order if I'm between sizes?

Given the snug nature of the neoprene bootie, if you are between sizes, it is often recommended to go up half a size for a more comfortable fit, especially if you plan to wear thicker socks.

How do I clean the neoprene bootie part?

The neoprene can typically be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Gently scrub and wipe clean. Ensure it dries thoroughly before use.

What is the primary difference between this and the original Air Mowabb?

The ACG Air Mowabb Rattan Birch is a revival of the original design, featuring updated materials and construction for modern standards while retaining the iconic silhouette and colorway.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or snug.

The neoprene bootie is designed for a snug fit. Try wearing them with thinner socks initially, or loosen the laces significantly. If discomfort persists after a few wears, they may be too small.

Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces.

Ensure the outsole is clean from debris. While designed for grip, extreme wet conditions can still present challenges. Consider additional care products for enhanced water resistance if needed.

Leather showing signs of wear or stiffness.

Apply a suitable leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and protected. Clean off dirt before conditioning.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable construction suitable for outdoor use.
  • Comfortable fit thanks to the neoprene bootie and foam midsole.
  • Excellent traction on various surfaces.
  • Iconic design with a strong heritage.
  • Versatile for both hiking and casual wear.

Cons

  • Specific fit may not suit all foot types without break-in.
  • Higher retail price point.
  • Neoprene bootie can be snug, requiring careful sizing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear hiking shoes. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. The lacing system allows for a customized fit.

Compatibility: Designed for adult use, primarily for outdoor activities and casual wear. Not intended for highly technical mountaineering or extreme sports.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the leather upper with a slightly damp cloth to remove dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild leather cleaner, testing in an inconspicuous area first.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Use a brush or cloth with soap and water to clean the foam midsole and rubber outsole. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  3. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box, to protect them from dust and moisture.
