How does the Nike Air cushioning work?
Encapsulated Nike Air cushioning is embedded within the foam midsole. It provides lightweight, durable cushioning and shock absorption for comfort during wear.

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure laces are loosened before putting on. The elastic heel strap might need a short break-in period. Try wearing with different sock thicknesses.
Dirt or stains on the textile upper.
Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn stains, consider a specialized sneaker cleaner suitable for textile materials. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
Nubuck material looks scuffed or dirty.
Use a suede or nubuck eraser to gently remove marks. Follow up with a suede brush to restore the nap. Avoid water on nubuck sections.
Rubber heel cage feels stiff.
The rubber cage is designed for structure and support. It may soften slightly with wear. Ensure the heel is properly seated within the cage.
