FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for heavy rain or hiking?

While the GORE-TEX provides excellent water resistance for everyday wear and light rain, they are primarily designed as trainers for urban environments. For serious hiking in extreme conditions, dedicated hiking footwear might be more appropriate.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The best way is to try them on. Ensure there is about a thumb's width between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. Your heel should feel secure without slipping.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the GORE-TEX membrane, adhesives, and cushioning system.

What does the GORE-TEX logo signify?

The GORE-TEX logo indicates that the shoe features a waterproof and breathable membrane technology developed by W. L. Gore & Associates, designed to keep your feet dry and comfortable.

How often should I clean my trainers?

Clean your trainers after significant use or when they appear visibly dirty. Regular light cleaning helps maintain their appearance and performance.

What is the primary difference between these and standard Air Max 90s?

The primary difference is the inclusion of GORE-TEX material in the upper, providing enhanced waterproofing and wind resistance compared to standard models.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel wet inside after exposure to rain.

Ensure the GORE-TEX membrane is intact. Check laces and tongue for proper sealing. If damage is suspected, professional assessment may be needed.

Reduced comfort or fit issues.

Verify you have the correct size. Consider using different socks or insoles for a personalized fit. Ensure laces are tied appropriately.

Dirt and scuffs on the leather and textile.

Clean immediately with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then allow to air dry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproofing and wind resistance due to GORE-TEX.
  • Comfortable cushioning suitable for extended wear.
  • Durable construction with quality leather and textile materials.
  • Iconic and timeless Air Max 90 design.
  • Versatile colorway that pairs well with various outfits.

Cons

  • The color scheme is predominantly black and khaki, which might be too subdued for some.
  • May be less breathable than non-waterproofed trainers in very warm conditions.
  • Higher price point compared to standard Air Max 90 models due to GORE-TEX technology.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort and fit.

Compatibility: Designed for adult male foot sizes (UK 8 specified, but available in other sizes). Suitable for casual wear and everyday activities.

Care: To maintain the GORE-TEX and leather materials:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials and waterproofing.
  3. Waterproofing Maintenance: While GORE-TEX is inherently waterproof, regular cleaning helps preserve its performance. Consider using a specialized waterproof spray for leather and textile after thorough cleaning, following product instructions.
