Product Information

Full details

These Nike Air Max 97 Low Shoes in Red are designed for adult males seeking to elevate their casual footwear with a blend of iconic 90s style and modern comfort. The key benefit lies in their distinctive design, featuring a full-length Air Max unit for excellent cushioning and a mesh and synthetic upper for breathability. A potential caveat for some users might be the low-top silhouette, which offers less ankle support compared to high-top models.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the Air Max 97 features cushioning, they are primarily designed as lifestyle sneakers for casual wear and everyday comfort, not for high-impact running or athletic training.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from a combination of mesh and synthetic materials, designed for breathability and durability.

How do I find my correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided by Nike or the retailer. Generally, measure your foot length and compare it to the UK sizing guide. These are men's UK sizes.

Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, the Air unit, and the overall structure of the shoe. Hand cleaning is the preferred method.

What does the 'Low Shoes' designation mean?

It refers to the silhouette of the shoe, indicating it is a low-top design that sits below the ankle, contrasting with mid-top or high-top shoe styles.

How durable is the full-length Air Max unit?

The Air Max unit is engineered for durability and consistent cushioning for the intended lifestyle use. Its longevity depends on usage patterns and avoiding extreme conditions or impacts.

What is the difference between the Nike Air Max 97 and the Air Max 97 Low?

The primary difference is the silhouette. The 'Low' version refers to a low-top cut that sits below the ankle, whereas the original Air Max 97 has a slightly higher cut and is known for its distinct wavy lines inspired by Japanese bullet trains.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure laces are loosened before putting on and then tightened to a comfortable level. If the shoes are new, they may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.

Reduced cushioning effect over time

The Air Max unit is designed for long-term durability, but its cushioning can feel less pronounced after extensive use. Ensure the shoes are not being used for activities beyond their intended purpose (e.g., high-impact sports).

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers or the sole. Try ensuring the shoes are completely dry. If the issue persists, a small amount of talcum powder sprinkled inside the shoe might help.

Dirt or stains on the mesh upper

Gently clean with a soft brush or damp cloth and mild soap solution as per the care instructions. Avoid soaking the shoes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These shoes require no setup. Simply lace them up for a secure fit.

Compatibility:

Designed for adult males, these shoes are compatible with most casual wear, including jeans, shorts, joggers, and athleisure outfits.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt and dust from the mesh and synthetic materials. For tougher stains, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  • Cleaning the Midsole and Sole: Use a brush or damp cloth to clean the foam midsole and rubber outsole. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
