Product Information

Full details

Designed for adult sneaker enthusiasts and skateboarders who appreciate a fusion of heritage running aesthetics and performance-focused engineering, the Nike Air Max 95 SB Eric Koston offers a unique blend of style and durability. The key benefit of this collaboration is its specialized construction for high-wear environments, providing superior board feel without sacrificing the iconic Air Max comfort. One potential caveat is that the leather-heavy construction may require a brief break-in period compared to standard mesh-upper trainers.

FAQs

Is this shoe intended primarily for running?

While it draws on Air Max running heritage, this SB edition is specifically modified for skateboarding, focusing on board feel and durability over long-distance running performance.

How do I maintain the Speed Yellow accents?

Use a specialized non-abrasive sneaker cleaner to gently wipe the accented areas, avoiding harsh chemicals that could strip the colour.

Does this shoe fit true to size?

Yes, it generally fits true to standard Nike sizing, though the leather construction offers a slightly more structured feel than mesh-based versions.

Can I use these for professional skateboarding?

Yes, the design incorporates double-stitch reinforcement and specific lug patterns intended for enhanced durability and grip during skate activities.

Is the leather genuine?

The upper is constructed from durable, high-quality leather intended to withstand the rigors of high-impact movement.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels too stiff after purchase

Wear the shoes indoors with thicker socks for a few hours to help the leather soften and mold to your foot shape.

Accumulated dirt on traction lugs

Use a toothpick or a stiff-bristled cleaning brush to dislodge debris from the specific lug pattern on the outsole.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enhanced durability thanks to premium leather materials.
  • Superior traction and board feel compared to original Air Max 95 designs.
  • Reinforced construction extends the lifecycle of the shoe in active scenarios.
  • Distinctive collaboration aesthetic that stands out in the Air Max lineage.

Cons

  • Leather construction may feel firmer initially than mesh counterparts.
  • The specialized sole design is optimized for performance, which may feel different from standard lifestyle Air Max units.
  • Limited to a specific aesthetic preference.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because the shoe is constructed primarily from leather, it is important to avoid submersion in water, which can stiffen the material. To maintain the condition of the leather:

  1. Cleaning: Use a dry soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt after each use. For stubborn spots, use a specialized leather cleaner and a damp cloth.
  2. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the Speed Yellow accents over time.
  3. Break-in: Wear the shoes for shorter durations initially to allow the leather to conform to your foot shape naturally.
  4. Compatibility: These trainers are standard sizing; however, given the reinforced construction, ensure you choose your usual Nike size for the best fit.
