Is the Nike Air Max 97 suitable for running?
While originally designed as a high-performance running shoe, this version is primarily intended for lifestyle and casual use.
How does the sizing run for kids?
The Air Max 97 generally fits true to size, but the slim, low-profile design may feel snug for children with wider feet.

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently scrub the grooves with mild soap and water to avoid damaging the material.
Do the neon colors fade quickly?
High-quality dyes are used, but keeping them away from prolonged direct sunlight will help maintain their vibrancy.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the leather and the vibrancy of the colors, it is recommended to wipe the shoes down with a damp cloth after outdoor use to prevent dirt from settling into the ripple-patterned grooves. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap solution and a soft-bristled brush, avoiding harsh chemicals that could affect the leather or the transparent Air unit. Ensure the laces are adjusted securely but not overly tight to maintain the structural integrity of the upper's wave system. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent potential yellowing or color fading over time.
