Product Information
Full details
The Nike Air Max 2017 in Black White is designed for adult male runners seeking a blend of style and performance. Its key benefit is the full-length, clear Air-Max unit offering superior cushioning and a visually striking aesthetic, complemented by a sculpted Cushlon midsole for impact absorption. A potential caveat is that while designed for performance, its prominent cushioning might not suit all running styles or preferences for a minimalist feel.

FAQs
Are the Nike Air Max 2017 suitable for marathon running?
Yes, the full-length Air-Max unit provides excellent cushioning and shock absorption, which can be beneficial for long-distance running like marathons. However, personal preference for cushioning levels is a key factor.
How do I clean the clear Air-Max unit without scratching it?
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the clear Air-Max unit. For tougher marks, a very small amount of mild, non-abrasive soap can be used, followed by thorough wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh cleaners.
What is the main difference between the Air Max 2017 and newer Air Max models?
Newer models often incorporate updated cushioning technologies, lighter materials, and revised designs for enhanced performance and comfort. The Air Max 2017 features a specific full-length Air unit and Cushlon midsole combination from its release year.
Can I wear these trainers for gym workouts or cross-training?
While they can be used for light gym activities, their primary design is for running. For intense cross-training with lateral movements, shoes with more ankle support and stability might be more appropriate.
What does the 'color gradient' on the upper refer to?
The color gradient means the color on the upper part of the shoe transitions smoothly from one shade to another. In the Black White version, it fades from black towards white.
What is the purpose of the Cushlon midsole?
The Cushlon midsole works in tandem with the Air-Max unit to provide a soft, yet responsive cushioning experience. It helps to absorb impact and contributes to a springy feel during each step.
How should I store my Nike Air Max 2017 when not in use?
It's best to store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Ensuring they are clean and dry before storage can help maintain their condition.
Troubleshooting
Air unit appears cloudy or discolored
This can sometimes occur with prolonged exposure to sunlight or certain cleaning agents. Gently wipe with a damp cloth and allow to air dry away from direct light. If the issue persists, it may be normal wear.
Laces come undone frequently
Try using a double knot when tying your laces. Consider replacing the laces with a pair that has more texture for better grip.
Uneven wear on the outsole
Ensure you are using the shoes for their intended purpose (running). Check your running form, as improper gait can lead to uneven wear. Rotate with other footwear if possible.
Upper feels less breathable after some use
Gently clean the FlyMesh upper with a soft brush and mild soap and water. Ensure it dries completely before wearing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult male runners. They are best suited for road running, treadmill use, and general fitness activities.
Care: To maintain the appearance and performance of your Air Max 2017:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or cloth dampened with mild soap and water to gently clean the FlyMesh and synthetic upper. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Air Unit: Wipe the Cushlon midsole and the clear Air-Max unit with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks on the clear unit, a very mild, non-abrasive cleaner can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
- Laces: Remove laces for washing separately by hand with mild soap and water.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
