FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Most users find that the Air Max 1/97 fits true to size, similar to standard Air Max 1 models.

Can I wear these in the rain?

It is highly recommended to avoid wearing these in the rain as the corduroy upper can soak up moisture and lose its texture.

How do I clean the corduroy material?

Use a dry, soft brush to remove dust and a slightly damp cloth for light spots, ensuring you do not soak the material.

What is the primary difference between the 97 and the 1/97?

The 1/97 uses the Air Max 97's layered upper design, but substitutes the standard sole for the classic Air Max 1 unit.

Should I use a protective spray?

If you choose to use a sneaker protector, ensure it is specifically labeled safe for use on delicate fabrics like corduroy and velour.

Troubleshooting

Surface dust trapped in corduroy ridges

Use a soft-bristled horsehair brush to gently lift debris out from between the corduroy lines.

Visible water stains

Lightly dampen a clean microfiber cloth and gently dab the entire panel to ensure an even dry, avoiding aggressive scrubbing.

Frayed edges becoming excessive

Use precision embroidery scissors to carefully trim any stray threads that have become significantly detached or unsightly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Air Max 1/97 in top condition, avoid exposure to water and direct mud. Because of the corduroy fabric, if a spill occurs, blot the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth rather than rubbing, which can mat the texture. For general care, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust after each use. Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the colors over time. When changing laces, be gentle with the eyelets to ensure the fabric remains intact.
