Product Information

Full details

This guide is for adult male skateboarders and sneaker enthusiasts seeking a stylish, durable shoe that combines skate-specific features with Air Max comfort. The key benefit is the blend of a classic skate aesthetic with modern cushioning technology. A potential caveat is the monochrome design, which may require more careful cleaning to maintain its appearance. The Nike SB Air Max Ishod Wair 'Black Gum' features a robust suede and leather upper, a mesh side panel with a patent leather Swoosh, and a black midsole paired with a gum outsole. It incorporates visible Air units for enhanced comfort and impact protection, a design that honors American pro skater Ishod Wair.

FAQs

Are these shoes good for professional skateboarding?

Yes, the Nike SB Air Max Ishod Wair is designed with pro skater Ishod Wair's input, featuring durable materials, grip, and cushioning suitable for demanding skateboarding.

How do I clean the black gum sole?

Wipe the gum sole with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, a specialized sole cleaner or a magic eraser can be used cautiously.

What is the main difference between these and regular Nike Air Max shoes?

These are specifically adapted for skateboarding, featuring enhanced durability in key areas, a flatter sole profile for board feel, and a grippier gum outsole, compared to the more general athletic focus of standard Air Max models.

Can I wear these for running or other sports?

While they offer good cushioning, they are optimized for skateboarding. For running or high-impact sports, dedicated athletic shoes are recommended.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is primarily constructed from a combination of suede and leather, with a mesh panel on the side and a patent leather Nike Swoosh.

What does 'SB' stand for in Nike SB?

'SB' stands for 'Skateboarding'. Nike SB is a division of Nike dedicated to skateboarding footwear and apparel.

What is the closure type?

The closure type is lacing, allowing for an adjustable and secure fit.

Troubleshooting

Laces come undone frequently.

Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot if necessary. Consider replacing them with laces that offer more friction.

Suede appears matted or dirty.

Use a suede brush to restore the nap of the suede. For persistent dirt, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully.

Reduced grip on the board.

Clean the gum outsole with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris that might be affecting traction.

Discomfort during landings.

Ensure laces are tied appropriately for a secure fit. Check that the Air unit is not compromised; for significant discomfort, consider professional inspection.
