Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal wear, ensure you select your standard UK sizing for the best fit within the rigid structure of the Air Max 97. Because of the multi-material construction—specifically the mesh and leather components—it is recommended to treat the shoes with a protective water and stain repellent spray before the first use. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush with a mild detergent solution, paying extra attention to the mesh sections to avoid scrubbing too hard. Avoid submerging the trainers in water, as this can degrade the internal adhesives. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent yellowing of the sail-coloured materials.
