FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While these feature Air Max cushioning, the Air Max 97 is designed primarily as a lifestyle and fashion trainer rather than a high-performance running shoe.

How do I ensure I have the right size?

The Nike Air Max 97 typically fits true to size. If you have wider feet, you may consider going up half a size due to the structured leather construction.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, it is highly recommended to hand clean the trainers, as machine washing can damage the leather and compromise the cushioning unit.

What is the primary material used in the upper?

The upper is constructed from high-quality, durable leather, providing a premium aesthetic and supportive fit.

How long does the Air unit last?

With proper care and regular wear, the Air unit is designed to provide consistent support for the life of the shoe.

Do these provide good arch support?

Yes, the combination of the full-length Air unit and the supportive leather upper provides stable arch support suitable for most casual wearers.

Troubleshooting

Visible scuffs on the leather upper

Gently buff the affected area with a damp cloth or use a specialized leather cleaning solution.

Creasing at the toe box

Creasing is natural for leather shoes; use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain the original shape.

Dirt stuck in the Air Max unit

Use a soft brush or a cotton swab dampened with water to carefully dislodge debris from the crevices.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior impact protection via full-length Air unit
  • Durable leather construction for longevity
  • Iconic, recognizable design profile
  • Reliable grip for daily urban commuting

Cons

  • Leather material is less breathable than knit alternatives
  • Requires a break-in period to reach maximum comfort
  • White colorways require frequent cleaning to maintain appearance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Air Max 97s remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Break-in: Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the leather upper to mold to the contours of your feet.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush and mild detergent mixed with water to gently remove dirt from the leather surfaces. Avoid submerging the shoes in water to protect the integrity of the adhesive.
  3. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or the colors from fading.
  4. Compatibility: These trainers pair best with casual denim, joggers, or technical trousers, highlighting the sleek silhouette of the Air Max series.
