FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard Nike sizing. If you have previously owned Nike trainers, we recommend selecting that same size.
Can I use these for basketball?
While based on a basketball silhouette, these are classified as lifestyle trainers and do not feature the modern performance technology found in current professional basketball shoes.
How do I keep the black and red colors from fading?
Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight for extended periods and clean them using mild soap rather than harsh chemical cleaners.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The low-top design offers a standard fit. Some users with wider feet may prefer to loosen the lacing system to increase volume.
Are they machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and leather materials. Stick to manual hand cleaning.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the toe box area
This is common with leather trainers. Using a shoe tree when not in use helps maintain the shape and reduce permanent creasing.
Stiff feel during first wear
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the materials to soften and conform to your foot shape naturally.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Flight 89 Low trainers maintain their appearance, follow these care tips:
