FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to the standard UK adult sizing provided.
Can I use these for basketball?
While they feature a basketball heritage design, modern performance shoes are recommended for competitive play.
How do I clean the white sections?
Use a damp, soft cloth with a mild soap solution for the leather and a dedicated sneaker cleaner for the midsole.
Are these authentic Nike products?
Yes, these are authentic Nike trainers provided in their original packaging.
Do they provide good arch support?
They offer standard everyday support suitable for most foot types, but orthotics can be swapped in if needed.
Are they water-resistant?
No, they are made primarily of leather and fabric, which are not water-resistant. Avoid heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Visible scuffs on the white leather
Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a gentle leather cleaning solution applied with a soft-bristled brush.
Creasing at the toe box
This is common with leather trainers. Use shoe trees when not being worn to help maintain the original shape.
Laces becoming untied frequently
Ensure they are tightened properly or replace them with slightly longer laces if a double-knot is preferred.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When you receive your pair, ensure the fit is snug but comfortable; as these are a heritage model, consider wearing them with mid-weight athletic socks to avoid potential friction. To keep your Nike Air Flight 89 trainers in top condition:
- Cleaning: Wipe down the white leather surfaces with a damp cloth or a dedicated sneaker cleaner after each use to prevent dirt buildup.
- Storage: Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or yellowing.
- Lacing: Ensure laces are threaded evenly to maintain proper foot support throughout the day.
- Rotation: If possible, rotate with other shoes to allow the cushioning to recover between wears.
