Product Information
Full details
The Nike Moon Shoe OG Trainers are designed for adult men who appreciate iconic sneaker history and a vintage 70s aesthetic. These trainers offer the unique benefit of wearing a modern reproduction of the original running shoe design crafted by Bill Bowerman, featuring a distinctive waffle-patterned sole for classic traction. One important caveat is that these shoes prioritize historical design over modern high-performance athletic technology, making them best suited for casual wear and collectors rather than intense sporting activities.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While based on an original running design, they lack the modern support and cushioning required for safe, long-distance running today.
How do I clean the white nylon material?
Spot clean with a mixture of mild soap and lukewarm water using a soft cloth, then air dry away from heat sources.
Do these fit true to size?
Yes, they generally fit according to standard UK adult sizing, though your preference for socks may influence your comfort level.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and the material composition of the shoes.
Are the leather accents real leather?
The product features leather accents as part of the authentic design to provide structure and aesthetic contrast.
What is the inspiration behind the sole?
The sole was inspired by the founder's wife's waffle iron, which was used to create the original rubber-molded pattern.
Troubleshooting
Visible surface dust on nylon upper
Gently use a soft-bristled brush or a dry microfiber cloth to wipe away debris.
Creasing on the leather accents
Use a shoe tree when not in use to help maintain the shape and minimize deep-set creases.
Sole traction feels slick on wet surfaces
The original waffle sole design is better suited for dry, paved surfaces; be cautious when walking on wet or slippery tiles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the nylon and leather from fading. Since these shoes feature nylon, avoid excessive moisture exposure. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust. For tougher stains, use a mild, diluted soap solution applied with a clean cloth to the affected areas, ensuring you do not submerge the shoes. Because these trainers follow standard UK sizing, choose your regular footwear size for the best fit. Always ensure laces are tied securely to provide support, and avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can damage the structural integrity of the leather and nylon components.
