FAQs

What is the significance of the 'Kiss of Death' name?

The name and design are inspired by Chinese traditions and philosophies, particularly focusing on 'Chi' (spiritual energy) and the concept of acupressure points in the feet, which CLOT founder Edison Chen aims to represent through design.

Are these shoes comfortable for everyday wear?

The Nike Air Max 1 silhouette is generally known for comfort, featuring Nike's Air cushioning. However, due to their collector status and unique materials, many prefer to wear them for special occasions or keep them as display pieces.

How do I clean the translucent parts of the shoe?

Gently wipe the translucent areas with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could scratch or cloud the material.

What is the primary material of the shoe?

The shoe features a mix of materials, including leather, faux snakeskin accents, ostrich-textured leather on the collar, and translucent materials for the upper and toe box.

When was this reissue released?

The Nike Air Max 1 CLOT Kiss of Death reissue was released in March 2021.

Where can I find information on other sizes or colorways?

This guide focuses on the specific 2021 reissue. Information on other sizes or variations may be available through collector forums or secondary market platforms.

Is this shoe suitable for athletic performance?

While based on a performance-inspired silhouette, this is a lifestyle and collector's sneaker. It is not designed for high-impact athletic activities.

Troubleshooting

Translucent upper appears discolored.

Discoloration can occur due to prolonged sun exposure or certain cleaning agents. Store away from light and use only mild, appropriate cleaning methods.

Insole print is fading.

The insole print is part of the design and may fade with significant wear. For preservation, consider wearing with socks or using a protective spray suitable for printed insoles.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.

The icy-blue outsole offers unique aesthetics but may have varying grip on different surfaces. Exercise caution on wet or polished floors.
