FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While they feature Air Max cushioning, these are designed primarily as lifestyle trainers rather than performance running shoes.

How do I clean the white leather?

Use a damp cloth with mild soap or a professional leather cleaning kit, taking care to avoid harsh chemicals.

Are these limited edition?

The City Connect series celebrates specific team aesthetics and is often released in limited quantities.

Do they fit true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard Nike sizing. If you prefer a looser fit, some users opt for a half-size up.

Can I machine wash these?

No, machine washing can damage the leather material and the glue bonds. Always hand clean.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the leather upper

Use shoe trees when not in use to help the leather maintain its shape and minimize deep creases.

Difficulty removing surface scuffs

Use a specialized leather cleaner or a white eraser for minor scuffs on the leather panels.

Visible dirt on the midsole

A damp cloth with a mild detergent solution is usually sufficient for cleaning the white rubber midsole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Air Max 1 sneakers remain in top condition, follow these care and setup guidelines:

  1. Sizing: These shoes are standard adult male sizes; ensure you verify your specific UK size as listed on the box.
  2. Routine Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust. For the white leather portions, use a damp cloth with mild soap and gently wipe away stains immediately.
  3. Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or the white color from yellowing over time.
  4. Protection: Consider using a specialized leather-safe water and stain repellent spray before initial wear to create a protective barrier.
