FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to standard UK adult sizing, though the padded design offers a snug, secure feel.
Can I use these for running?
While they provide great cushioning, they are not intended for distance running; they are best suited for lifestyle and casual use.
How do I clean the white sections?
Spot clean with a soft cloth, lukewarm water, and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals that may yellow the materials.
Do the Air units require special care?
Avoid walking on sharp objects that could potentially puncture the air-filled pockets in the sole.
Is the material waterproof?
No, the trainers are made of a mix of synthetic and textile materials that are not waterproof. We recommend a protective spray if you live in a rainy climate.
Troubleshooting
Visible scuffs on the white exterior
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning wipe or a soft cloth with a tiny amount of non-abrasive sneaker cleaner.
Feeling too stiff out of the box
The thick materials require a brief 'break-in' period. Wear them for short durations indoors to soften the leather and textile components.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air More Uptempos last, it is essential to store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading on the leather or synthetic upper. For daily maintenance, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry debris from the outsole and midsole. If the white upper becomes soiled, spot-clean using a mixture of mild soap and water with a microfiber cloth; avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can degrade the adhesives and structural integrity of the Air units. Ensure you select your standard UK sizing for the best fit, as the silhouette is designed with a standard width.
