FAQs

Are these suitable for running?

The Nike Air Max 97 SE is designed primarily as a lifestyle and casual wear shoe, featuring iconic Air Max cushioning for comfort. For dedicated running, specialized running shoes with targeted support and cushioning are recommended.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild leather cleaner and conditioner. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.

What is the best way to tie the laces?

The lacing system is designed for a secure fit. Tie them snugly but not so tight that they restrict circulation. Experiment with different lacing techniques to find what feels most comfortable and supportive for your foot.

How does the sizing compare to other Nike trainers?

Nike Air Max 97 models generally fit true to size for most people. However, it's always recommended to consult the Nike size chart and consider trying them on if possible, as individual fit can vary.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions may lead to damage or discomfort. Consider a water-repellent spray for added protection if you anticipate wet weather.

What does 'SE' stand for in the product name?

SE typically stands for 'Special Edition', indicating a variation or specific theme applied to the original model, often featuring unique materials, colourways, or design details.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise during walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction within the shoe. Try loosening the laces slightly or ensuring the insoles are properly seated. A light dusting of talcum powder under the insole might also help.

Uneven wear on the sole

Ensure you are wearing the correct size and that your gait is natural. For persistent uneven wear, consult a shoe specialist, as it might indicate an underlying issue with foot mechanics.

Creasing on the leather upper

Creasing is natural for leather footwear with wear. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain the shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear footwear. Ensure you have selected the correct size for a comfortable fit. The lacing system allows for adjustment to your preference.

Compatibility: The Nike Air Max 97 SE is designed as a casual men's trainer. It pairs well with a wide range of casual apparel. It is not intended for specialized athletic activities that require specific footwear support (e.g., running, basketball).

Care Instructions:

  2. Drying: Air dry the trainers away from direct heat sources.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box, to maintain their shape and prevent damage.
