FAQs

What is the origin of the Nike Moon Shoe?

The Nike Moon Shoe design is a modern interpretation of the very first running shoe ever created by Nike co-founder Bill Bowerman, originally made using his wife's waffle iron in the 1970s. This model celebrates that pioneering spirit.

Are these trainers suitable for running long distances or intense training?

While inspired by running shoes, the Moon Shoe is primarily designed for casual wear and style. For intense athletic training or long-distance running, specialized performance running shoes are recommended for optimal support and cushioning.

How do I clean the leather accents?

Gently wipe the leather accents with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher marks, a leather cleaner specifically designed for athletic footwear can be used sparingly, followed by a dry cloth.

What is the main material of the upper?

The upper is primarily made of nylon, which contributes to its lightweight and breathable quality. It also features leather overlays for added structure and durability.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

The Nike Moon Shoe series has been released in various colorways. This specific guide focuses on the Midnight Navy/Gum Light Brown/Soft Pearl model (IW0955-400), but other color options may be available through different product listings or past releases.

What does 'Waffle Sole' mean?

The 'Waffle Sole' refers to the outsole pattern inspired by a waffle iron. This design, pioneered by Bill Bowerman, provides excellent traction and flexibility, and is a signature element of the original and modern Moon Shoe.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the lacing to find a more comfortable fit. If the size is significantly wrong, consider if an exchange for a different size is possible.

Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces.

Ensure the waffle sole is clean and free from debris. While the rubber sole provides grip, be cautious on extremely wet or slippery surfaces as with any footwear.

Discoloration on the nylon upper.

Spot clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight which can cause fading.

Pros and Cons

  • Durable rubber outsole for reliable traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup. They are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: Designed primarily for women's footwear sizing. They are compatible with casual wear, including jeans, shorts, and athletic-inspired clothing.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to gently clean the nylon and leather surfaces. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Cleaning the Sole: Use a damp cloth to wipe down the rubber waffle sole. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by a rinse with a clean, damp cloth.
  3. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a breathable shoe bag, to maintain their shape and condition.
