Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Air Max 97s last, proper care is essential. Since the upper consists of leather, mesh, and reflective overlays, avoid machine washing, which can damage the adhesive and material finish. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution on a cloth, gently dabbing the leather areas. Avoid using harsh chemicals or bleach on the reflective surfaces to keep the finish intact. For sizing, these shoes generally follow standard UK male sizing, but consider wearing your preferred thickness of sports socks for the best fit.
