FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the leather upper and the sole adhesives. Please clean by hand.
Do these trainers run true to size?
Nike Air Force 1 trainers generally follow standard sizing; however, since they are made of leather, they may feel slightly snug initially before molding to the foot.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed from durable leather, supported by a rubber outsole.
Can these be worn for sports?
While they were originally basketball shoes, they are now best suited for casual wear and light recreational activities.
How do I remove stubborn scuffs?
A gentle eraser or a dedicated leather cleaner applied with a soft cloth is usually effective for removing surface scuffs.
Are they suitable for all weather?
The leather upper provides some water resistance, but they are not fully waterproof and should be dried naturally if they get wet.
Troubleshooting
Creasing at the toe box
Use shoe trees when not being worn to help maintain the leather's shape.
Dirty or scuffed leather
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft, damp cloth with gentle soap; avoid harsh chemical detergents.
Slipping during walking
Check that the laces are tied securely and verify that the rubber outsole is free from mud or trapped gravel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Force 1 trainers last as long as possible, avoid machine washing, which can damage the leather and the integrity of the adhesive. Instead, wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt. For the outsole, a soft-bristled brush can be used to remove debris from the pivot circle grooves. It is recommended to store these shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or fading. Ensure the laces are adjusted to the child's preference, keeping them snug enough to prevent slipping but loose enough for proper circulation.
