FAQs
How do I determine my correct size for the Air Tailwind 79?
Measure your foot from heel to toe. If you fall between two sizes, choose the larger option for the best fit.
Can I use these for long-distance running?
These are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers for casual daily wear and walking, not for technical long-distance running.
How should I clean the white sections of the shoe?
Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using heavy chemicals or machine washing.
Is this shoe suitable for wide feet?
The Air Tailwind 79 has a standard, slim heritage fit. Users with wider feet may find it more comfortable to go up half a size.
What is the primary material used?
The shoe features a combination of durable textile and synthetic overlays characteristic of its retro construction.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels slightly tight across the instep
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to be looser; if tightness persists, consider if you are between sizes and require a half-size larger.
Getting white surfaces dirty during regular use
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning kit or a damp cloth with a mild detergent immediately after getting a stain to prevent it from setting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the optimal fit, use a standard measuring tool to measure your foot from the back of the heel to the tip of the longest toe. If your measurement falls between two standard sizes, always opt for the larger size to prevent pinching. For maintenance, it is recommended to spot-clean the white and blue upper with a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes or putting them in a washing machine, as this can degrade the materials and bond. To keep them looking fresh, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
