FAQs
What makes the 'Moon Shoe' special?
The Nike Moon Shoe OG is a modern iteration of the very first running shoe created by Nike co-founder Bill Bowerman, originally made using a waffle iron. It represents a significant piece of Nike's history.
Are these shoes good for running?
While inspired by a running shoe, the Moon Shoe OG is primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle. They lack the advanced cushioning and support systems found in modern performance running shoes.
How do I clean the waffle sole?
Use a damp cloth or a soft brush with a little soap and water. Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry completely. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
What is the material of the upper?
The upper is primarily made of nylon, with leather overlays for added structure and style.
Can I wear these with athletic socks?
Yes, you can wear them with athletic socks for comfort during casual activities. However, be mindful of potential color transfer from the leather accents to lighter socks.
What does 'OG' stand for in the name?
'OG' typically stands for 'Original Gangster' in sneaker culture, signifying a re-release or interpretation of an original, classic model.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot. Consider replacing laces with a textured or grippier material if slippage persists.
Discomfort during extended wear
Ensure you have the correct size. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for shorter periods initially. Consider using insoles for added cushioning if needed.
Traction issues on wet surfaces
The rubber waffle sole provides good traction on dry surfaces, but like most trainers, performance may be reduced on very wet or slippery conditions. Exercise caution.
Color transfer from leather to socks
This can occur with new leather items. Wear darker socks initially, or ensure the leather has been properly treated with a leather protector.
