FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Nike Air Max Plus generally follows standard Nike sizing. It is recommended to stick to your usual athletic shoe size.
Can I use these for heavy running?
While they provide great cushioning, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers; for intensive long-distance running, Nike-specific performance running lines are recommended.
How do I protect the metallic finish?
Apply a light, non-silicone leather protector spray, but always test on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure no color transfer or reaction.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The silhouette is relatively structured. If you have wide feet, you may find them slightly snug, so consider sizing up by half a size.
Is the leather upper waterproof?
While leather is naturally more water-resistant than mesh, it is not waterproof. Avoid heavy immersion in water to preserve the finish.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on the leather upper
Wipe gently with a soft, damp cloth or use a mild leather cleaner specifically designed for lifestyle sneakers.
Creasing in the leather during wear
Use cedar shoe trees when not in use to help maintain the shape and minimize deep creases.
Sole losing traction
Check the rubber outsoles for debris or trapped gravel in the tread and remove using a blunt tool or pressurized water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Nike Air Max Plus OG sneakers, proper care is essential. Since the upper is constructed from leather, it is recommended to use a leather-safe cleaning solution and a soft-bristle brush to remove surface dirt. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the metallic copper and gold accents. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature—do not use heat sources like radiators, as this may cause the leather to crack or the sole glue to weaken.
