FAQs

What does 'EP' stand for in Nike Book 1 EP Mirage?

'EP' stands for 'Engineered Performance.' This designation indicates the shoe was designed with enhanced durability and performance features, often catering to a slightly wider foot base.

Is the Nike Book 1 suitable for casual wear?

While the Nike Book 1 has a stylish design inspired by Devin Booker's journey, its primary design is for basketball performance. It can be worn casually, but its features are optimized for on-court activity.

How does the cushioning system work?

The shoe features a Zoom Air unit for responsive cushioning and Cushion 2.0 Foam for soft impact absorption, providing a balanced feel during play.

What materials are used in the upper construction?

The upper is constructed from a combination of premium leather and woven textile panels, with micro-perforated suede used on the heel collar for added comfort.

What is the inspiration behind the 'Mirage' colorway?

The 'Mirage' colorway is inspired by Devin Booker's personal journey from childhood to the NBA and pays homage to Phoenix, featuring a desert-like aesthetic.

How should I clean the leather portions of the shoe?

Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe the leather. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For any suede accents, a specialized suede brush is recommended.

What is the warranty period for Nike shoes?

Nike typically offers a limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Specific warranty details can be found on the official Nike website or by contacting customer service.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels too tight or too loose.

Refer to Nike's official sizing chart and compare with your foot measurements. Consider the 'EP' designation which may indicate a wider fit. If possible, try them on before purchasing or consult reviews for sizing advice.

Reduced cushioning after initial use.

The cushioning technology may require a brief break-in period. Continue to use the shoes for play; the foam will adapt to your foot and movement.

Creasing on the leather upper.

Some creasing is natural with leather shoes, especially during wear. To minimize excessive creasing, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Use shoe trees when not in use.

Traction feels inconsistent on certain surfaces.

Ensure the outsole is clean and free of dust or debris. The shoe's traction is optimized for clean indoor court surfaces. For outdoor or dusty courts, frequent cleaning of the outsole may be necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal performance and comfort. For the EP (Engineered Performance) version, consider that it may fit slightly wider.

Compatibility: Optimized for basketball performance on indoor courts. While durable, they are not intended for rugged outdoor terrain or activities other than basketball.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the leather and textile areas with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. For suede accents, use a suede brush to remove dirt.
  2. Midsole and Outsole: Clean with a damp cloth. Ensure no debris is stuck in the grooves of the outsole.
  3. Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or the original box to maintain their shape and condition.
