FAQs

Is the Nike Air Trainer 1 true to size?

Yes, most users find the Nike Air Trainer 1 fits true to size, but consider your preferred room in the toe box.

Can I use these for long-distance running?

While durable, these are designed for training and general athletic use; dedicated running shoes are recommended for long distances.

How do I clean the 'Photon Dust' grey colourway?

Use a soft brush and a damp cloth with mild soap, focusing on light strokes to avoid damaging the finish.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The silhouette is relatively standard; if you have very wide feet, you may prefer loosening the lacing system for a better fit.

What activities are these shoes best for?

They are best for gym workouts, weightlifting, circuit training, and general lifestyle wear.

Does the shoe provide arch support?

The Air Trainer 1 provides moderate arch support suitable for most neutral foot types during standard training activities.

Troubleshooting

Visible creasing on the toe box

This is common with leather footwear; using cedar shoe trees when not in use can help maintain the shape.

Soles feeling slippery on gym mats

Wipe the outsole with a slightly damp cloth to remove accumulated dust or debris that reduces traction.

  • Clean and versatile neutral colourway

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Air Trainer 1 shoes stay in optimal condition, verify your size before ordering, as they fit true to size. For cleaning, remove surface dirt using a soft-bristled brush. Wipe the leather and synthetic overlays with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid soaking the materials, as this can affect the adhesive bond and leather quality. Always air dry your trainers in a cool, shaded area away from direct heat sources, which can cause the materials to crack or warp.
