FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for skateboarding?

While the Air Force 1 silhouette has roots in basketball and has been adopted by skate culture, this specific 'The 10' collaboration model features delicate materials and unique detailing that may not withstand the rigors of intense skateboarding. They are primarily designed for lifestyle wear.

How do I clean the exposed foam on the tongue?

Gently wipe the exposed foam with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking the area or using vigorous scrubbing, as this could damage the material.

What does 'The 10' refer to?

'The 10' refers to a collection of ten iconic Nike shoes reinterpreted by Virgil Abloh, often characterized by deconstructed elements and unique branding.

Is this shoe considered unisex?

Yes, the Air Force 1 silhouette is widely embraced by all genders, and this design is suitable for anyone who appreciates its aesthetic.

What size is UK 10.5 equivalent to in US sizing?

A UK 10.5 generally corresponds to a US 11.5. However, it is always best to consult Nike's official size conversion chart for precise measurements.

How durable are the taped seams?

The taped seams are designed to be durable for lifestyle wear. However, avoid excessive force or friction on these areas to maintain their integrity.

Troubleshooting

Uneven stitching or glue marks

This is often an intentional part of the deconstructed design aesthetic. Inspect closely to differentiate between intentional design elements and actual defects. If deemed a defect, contact the retailer.

Material creasing

Creasing is natural with leather and suede. To minimize, avoid over-tightening laces, allow shoes to air dry after wear, and consider using shoe trees for storage.

Discoloration of white Swoosh or foam

Exposure to prolonged sunlight or certain cleaning agents can cause discoloration. Clean gently with a damp cloth and store away from direct light.
