The upper is crafted from premium leather, incorporating intricate details and textures. The outsole is made of durable rubber.

Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?

Troubleshooting

Sizing is incorrect

Refer to Nike's official sizing chart for accurate measurements. If the fit is not right, check the return policy of the retailer for exchange or return options.

Leather creasing

Creasing is natural with leather footwear. To minimize appearance, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid flexing the shoe excessively during wear.

Color transfer from University Red accents

In rare cases, the University Red accents may transfer. Avoid prolonged contact with lighter colored materials, especially when wet. Store properly to prevent this.
