The Nike Air Max 97 in Black (Size 5.5 UK) is designed for adult women seeking a blend of iconic street style and lasting comfort for everyday wear. Featuring a durable leather construction and the legendary full-length Air-Sole unit, it provides responsive cushioning that supports your feet during long hours on the move; however, potential buyers should carefully verify their specific UK sizing requirements as the silhouette offers a snug, performance-oriented fit.

The Air Max 97 generally has a snug, streamlined fit. If you prefer a bit more room, some users recommend going up a half size, though a UK 5.5 should fit accurately for most standard foot shapes.
While the Air Max 97 was originally designed as a performance running shoe, modern standards favor them for lifestyle and walking; they are excellent for daily activity but may not offer the technical support of dedicated modern marathon trainers.
Use a leather conditioner specifically designed for black footwear to keep the material supple and maintain the depth of the color.
The leather construction provides some protection against light rain, but they are not fully waterproof and should be avoided in heavy downpours.
The Air-Sole unit uses pressurized air in a durable, flexible bag to provide responsive cushioning that bounces back with every step.
Use a shoe tree when not in use to maintain the shape and reduce permanent creasing in the leather.
This is often caused by moisture inside the shoe; remove the insole and allow the interior to air dry completely.
Use a soft brush to remove debris or small rocks embedded in the tread pattern that may be affecting grip.
To ensure your Air Max 97s remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Since these feature leather uppers, avoid prolonged exposure to heavy water or harsh chemicals. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush or a damp cloth with mild, soapy water to remove surface dirt. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the structural integrity of the Air-Sole unit. For sizing, this specific pair corresponds to a UK 5.5; because the design is intentionally streamlined, we recommend wearing thinner performance socks for the best fit initially. Always store your trainers in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking and color fading.
