FAQs
Is the Nike Air Max 1 Shima Shima suitable for running?
While the Air Max 1 was originally a running shoe, this version is intended for lifestyle and casual use.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
Nike Air Max 1 models generally fit true to size. If you have a wider foot, you may prefer a half-size larger than your standard measurement.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can damage the leather materials, adhesives, and structure of the sneaker.
What is the inspiration behind the Shima Shima series?
The design is a direct tribute to the original 'Shima Shima' pack released by Nike in 2003, featuring Japanese-inspired details.
How should I clean the striped insole?
If the insole becomes soiled, remove it from the shoe and gently wipe it with a damp cloth and mild detergent, then air dry completely.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather toe box
Use shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to maintain their shape and minimize deep-set creases.
Visible dirt on the midsole
Gently scrub with a mild soapy solution on a soft cloth or specialized sneaker wipe.
Stiff fit during initial wear
Wear the sneakers for short durations initially to allow the leather to naturally break in and conform to your foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this model features a leather upper, proper care is essential. Avoid wearing the shoes in heavy rain to prevent water damage to the leather. For cleaning, use a soft, dry brush to remove loose surface dirt. If necessary, use a leather-specific cleaner applied with a soft cloth, following up with a leather conditioner to prevent drying or cracking. Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to preserve the integrity of the materials.
