Troubleshooting
Sizing feels slightly off
Consult the Nike size chart for women's Air Max 97 and consider trying them on in-store if possible. Many users find they fit true to size, but personal preference for snugness can vary.
Inner sole feels uncomfortable after extended wear
Ensure the original insoles are properly seated. For additional comfort, consider purchasing aftermarket insoles designed for athletic shoes, ensuring they fit the profile of the Air Max 97.
Visible Air unit appears slightly deflated
The Air unit is designed for cushioning, not for maintaining a rigid shape. Minor compression is normal with wear. If there is a significant loss of cushioning or a leak is suspected, discontinue use and contact customer support.
Wavy lines showing creases or damage
Avoid folding the shoes excessively. When cleaning, be gentle around the wavy line details. For minor creases, sometimes stuffing the shoe can help ease them out over time.
