Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
There is no complex setup required for your Nike Air Max 90 trainers. Simply:
- Lace Up: Ensure laces are tied securely but not too tightly.
- Check Fit: Verify that the size feels comfortable, with adequate toe room and heel security.
Compatibility
These sneakers are highly compatible with a broad range of casual and streetwear attire:
- Bottoms: Pair well with jeans (slim, straight, relaxed fit), joggers, chinos, shorts, and even some casual trousers.
- Tops: Complement t-shirts, hoodies, casual shirts, and light jackets.
- Occasions: Perfect for everyday wear, urban exploration, social events, or simply relaxing.
Care
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Air Max 90s:
- Regular Cleaning: Use a soft brush or dry cloth to remove loose dirt and dust from the leather upper and sole after each wear.
- Spot Cleaning: For stubborn marks or dirt on the leather, gently wipe with a damp cloth (not soaking wet) and a small amount of mild soap or a dedicated leather cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Sole Cleaning: Use a brush or old toothbrush with mild soap and water to clean the rubber soles and air unit.
- Drying: Always allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can cause the leather to crack or shrink.
- Protection: Consider applying a water and stain repellent spray suitable for leather and synthetic materials to offer an extra layer of protection against spills and light rain.
- Storage: When not in use, store your trainers in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees or crumpled paper inside to help maintain their shape.
