FAQs

What makes the 'Wolf Grey' colorway unique?

The 'Wolf Grey' colorway features a blend of Pure Platinum, white, and subtle hints of Gym Red, offering a sophisticated and versatile aesthetic that complements the shoe's modern design.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

These trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact running activities.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to Nike's official sizing chart for accurate measurements. The Flyknit upper offers a flexible fit, but ensuring the correct length and width is crucial for comfort. This model is a UK 13.

What is the main environmental benefit of these shoes?

The shoe incorporates recycled materials, including recycled polyester in the Flyknit upper and Nike's own recycled Grind Rubber in the outsole, reducing waste and environmental impact.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the Flyknit material, foam midsole, and adhesive. Hand-clean with a damp cloth and mild soap.

How does the Crater foam differ from traditional Air Force 1 midsoles?

Crater foam is made with recycled materials and has a distinct, speckled appearance. It provides cushioning similar to traditional foam but offers a more modern and sustainable profile.

What is the original retail price for these shoes?

The Nike Air Force 1 Crater Flyknit 'Wolf Grey' was released with a retail price of $100.

Troubleshooting

Flyknit upper feels too tight

Wear the shoes with thicker socks for a short period to allow the Flyknit to stretch slightly. Ensure you have the correct size; refer to Nike's sizing guide if unsure.

Yellowing of the Crater foam midsole

This can occur due to UV exposure. Store shoes away from direct sunlight. Gentle cleaning with a specialized foam cleaner might help, but significant yellowing may be permanent.

Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces

The waffle pattern provides good traction, but like all rubber soles, grip may be reduced on very wet or smooth surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Mud or debris stuck in Flyknit texture

Use a soft brush or a toothpick to carefully remove any lodged debris. For persistent dirt, use a damp cloth and mild soap, then rinse gently with a clean damp cloth.
