Product Information
Full details
The Nike Moon Shoe OG is designed for adult collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate the history of performance footwear. This sneaker offers a authentic 1970s aesthetic that pays homage to Bill Bowerman's original waffle-iron-inspired innovation. While it serves as a stylish lifestyle choice, it is important to note that these shoes are built primarily for archival-style wear rather than modern high-intensity athletic performance.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While based on an original running design, these are lifestyle trainers and lack the modern cushioning required for long-distance running.
What materials are used in the upper?
The upper is constructed primarily of lightweight nylon complemented by leather accents.
How do I ensure the correct fit?
The Nike Moon Shoe OG fits true to standard Nike sizing; order your usual size for the most comfortable fit.
Can I wash these in the washing machine?
No, you should never machine wash these trainers, as it will damage the material construction and leather components.
What is the inspiration behind the sole?
The sole is inspired by the original waffle iron experiment conducted by Bill Bowerman to improve traction.
Do these come with extra laces?
The product typically includes the standard laces that match the primary colorway.
Troubleshooting
Visible surface dust on nylon
Use a soft, dry brush to gently sweep away loose particles from the fabric surface.
Creasing on leather accents
Use a shoe tree when not in use to help maintain the structure and minimize deep creases.
Stiff sole feel during initial wear
Allow for a short break-in period on flat surfaces to let the materials soften naturally to your foot shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The Nike Moon Shoe OG arrives ready to wear with standard lacing. To ensure long-term preservation of the nylon and leather materials, store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the Cacao Wow coloring. If the exterior gets dirty, use a soft-bristled brush or a dry microfiber cloth to remove surface dust. Avoid submerging the sneakers in water, as moisture can affect the adhesive bonds and leather components. If you need to deep clean, use a gentle foam cleaner specifically rated for nylon and leather, and always air dry at room temperature.
